It all begins with a passion and A legacy to carry on
My family started farming in Colorado around 1910. I am a fourth generation Coloradoan. Through our agricultural roots, I learned the values of hard work, character, and caring for the land.
10 years ago, we started distilling whiskey and finding that tasting and trying to come up with the best mash bills was only half of the fun. The other half was the relationships it formed and the people we encountered along the way. Three years ago, we decided we wanted to share our passion with others and Larado Whiskey was born. Through a lot of time and dedication, we sold our first products in February 2024. The name Larado comes from the importance it served in the homesteading of the American West. The lasso took the untamed praries and helped cultivate the lands to what they are today. It is a symbol of unity, determination and the old values that we instill in our company everyday.
