For the second year, Breckenridge Distillery – the world’s highest
distillery and most awarded craft distillery in the US – combines
the art of blending whiskey and color in the second edition of the
Collectors Art Series, a limited release bottle with local Denver
Street artist and muralist, Alexandrea Pangburn. The new
Breckenridge XO Cognac Cask Finish Whiskey label will feature
Pangburn’s flora and fauna-inspired artwork on the Breckenridge
Distillery mural behind Number Thirty-Eight in Denver’s RiNo Arts
District. Featuring inviting aromatics of grape with a hint of
clove and cinnamon, the special edition whiskey will be available
in limited quantities exclusively at the Breckenridge Distillery
and the Main Street Tasting Room in Breckenridge, Colorado for,
$125, starting May 6.
“I’ve always had a passion for art, which led me to distill
whiskey in the first place. The Collectors Art Series is special to
Breckenridge Distillery because it allows us to highlight local
artists making an impact in their community like Alex is doing in
Colorado,” says Bryan Nolt, founder, and CEO of Breckenridge
Distillery. “Alex’s focus on conservation and representation of the
natural world around her through art made her a perfect partner for
our second Collectors Art Series. We’re thrilled to bring her art
to life in this limited-edition whiskey.”
“I’m very honored to have my art on a whiskey label in a very
male-dominated industry,” says Pangburn. “My hope is that this
partnership opens the eyes of female artists that they have the
capability to do this as well.”
Growing up in Lexington, Kentucky, Pangburn cultivated not only
a deep love and appreciation for bourbon but also, animals, which
serve as the main source of inspiration in her art. What started as
a side-gig painting friends’ and family’s pets, Pangburn’s hobby
turned into a full-time career as an artist in 2017 when she moved
to Denver.
Pangburn’s passion for birds started once she moved to Colorado.
The Western Tanager inspires much of her work in her new home state
and was featured on her first mural in Colorado, so she wanted to
include it on the new Breckenridge XO Cognac Cask Finish label to
bring her work full circle. The painting on the label also features
a fox character–an ode to Pangburn’s hometown in Lexington where
she created a mural with the same character and local Breckenridge
flora and fauna, including the alpine flowers that will be
blossoming in a few months.

“Wherever I’m painting, my goal is to make the
public more aware of the animals we’re sharing a space with. Over
the years my art has shifted into animal conservation and education
to bring more light and awareness to the local communities,” says
Pangburn.
A member of the RiNo Arts District, Pangburn also founded the
organization BABE WALLS in 2019 to create a community among women
and non-binary artists in the street art field – a space typically
dominated by male artists.
For each bottle sold, Breckenridge Distillery will donate $5 to
the ArtPark campaign in the RiNo Arts District to help fund the
Rocky Mountain Region’s most innovative interdisciplinary arts
center.
