For its Fourth Annual Collectors Art Series, Breckenridge Distillery Partners with California Artist to Create Label for Its New, Limited Release, Sauternes Cask Finish Whiskey
Breckenridge Distillery announces its fourth edition of the Collectors Art Series, a partnership with Los Angeles based artist, Abby Wren which combines the art of blending color and blending whiskey.
For the fourth edition of the Collector’s Art Series, Wren designs a whiskey label and mural in the RiNo Art District (Entrance in alley, 3537 Delgany St, Denver, CO 80216) in Denver, Colorado. In her design, Wren uses vivid colors and shapes to bring awareness to her message of inclusivity, “Different is Dope!” After losing all her hair to Alopecia, an autoimmune disease, Wren began using bold, creative makeup to express her femininity, believing in the power of creativity as a healing source. A donation of $5 per bottle will be donated to SOS Outreach, a nonprofit organization that uses mentorship, outdoor adventure, and a progressive curriculum to foster a deep sense of belonging in young people.
Wren’s artwork will be featured on the fourth Collectors Art Series whiskey, the Breckenridge Sauternes Cask Finish, a 95-proof whiskey and 47.5% ABV. The Sauternes Cask Finish features aromas of white peach, apricot and caramel. On the palate, notes of butterscotch and orange with a beautiful white oak finish with notes of vanilla and white pepper.
Smell and taste are just as powerful as vision. This collaboration is simply about evoking those emotions through graffiti and the artistry of whiskey.
Bryan Nolt, Founder and CEO of Breckenridge Distillery
