Stranahan’s Sherry Cask is a rich, full-bodied American single malt whiskey finished in Oloroso sherry barrels, adding luxurious layers of dried fruit, spice, and oak to Stranahan’s signature bold Colorado spirit. Made from 100% malted barley and aged in new American oak for four years before finishing in sherry casks imported from Spain, this expression offers a beautiful fusion of American strength and Old World elegance.
Crafted in small batches at high altitude in Denver, Colorado, this whiskey brings complexity and warmth to every pour.
