TINCUP Whiskey 10 Years Old American Whiskey

TINCUP 10 Year American Whiskey is the aged expression from Colorado’s TINCUP lineup — the same corn, rye, and malt blend cut with Rocky Mountain water, but given a full decade in American oak barrels to develop the deeper cinnamon, pine, honey, leather, and raisin complexity that extended aging produces in the TINCUP mash bill.

At ten years, the TINCUP expression has moved significantly beyond the bold, spicy freshness of the standard expression — the rye spice has integrated with the oak, the corn sweetness has caramelized, and the Rocky Mountain water’s clean character remains the consistent through-line throughout. Created by Jess Graber, who has been distilling since 1972, in honor of Colorado’s first whiskey drinkers and the tin cups they drank from. Browse all TINCUP whiskey at Wooden Cork.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does TINCUP 10 Year differ from the standard TINCUP?

The standard TINCUP is fresh, bold, and spicy — the rye character is forward and the corn sweetness is bright. The 10 Year has a decade of oak integration: the pepper has mellowed, leather and raisins have developed, and the caramel and biscuit finish is noticeably longer and more complex. A significantly different drinking experience from the same mash bill.
