If you didn’t know it already, “No-Shave November” is a month-long charity campaign held each November (or Movember) to raise awareness for men’s health, specifically mental health, and early awareness of prostate, testicular, and other cancers. And while it’s great to join the cause and spend a month growing a proverbial playoff beard, it’s also great when you can grow your whiskers while sipping on some tasty whiskey.

Located at 9,600 feet, Breckenridge is the highest distillery in the world. On top of that, it makes a handful of award-winning, noteworthy whiskeys. None as important as its recently released Breckenridge Dad’s Stash Bourbon.

This whiskey was made for ‘No Shave November,’ an annual charity-driven event that began in 2015 to honor Matthew Hill, a man who fought but eventually succumbed to colorectal cancer. For every bottle of this limited-edition bourbon sold, Breckenridge will donate $5 to Fight Colorectal Cancer.

The bourbon was made as a tribute to the whiskey your dad would hide or lock up because it was so flavorful and complex that he didn’t want anyone without a refined palate to indulge. It’s a blend of hand-selected bourbons. The result is a nuanced, memorable whiskey with flavors like dark chocolate, butterscotch, stone fruits, toffee, and even lychee fruit.

If you’re anything like us, even though you love the warming sweetness of a classic bourbon, sometimes you want to sip on something a little different. That’s where bourbon cream comes in. It’s perfect way to add a little boozy kick to your morning coffee (especially at a fall tailgate) or sip neat or on the rocks. And while you can’t go wrong with a classic bourbon cream, the folks at Rebel Bourbon just launched something special for the fall.

If you didn’t know it already, September is Bourbon Heritage Month. It was officially declared in 2007 by the U.S. Senate after being sponsored by Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning. Each fall, it’s celebrated to pay homage to America’s “native spirit” and its historical value, and the importance of the bourbon industry.

In my alcohol writing career, I’ve enjoyed countless glasses of bourbon. And while I’ll definitely sip my fair share of bourbon in September, to truly get the most out of this important month, it’s a good idea to learn a little about the history of this truly American form of whiskey, along with the stories and legends surrounding it.

Bourbon is the epitome of America in a glass. The United States’ “native spirit” is as American as the designated hitter, bright yellow school buses, and McDonald’s apple pie. It’s entrenched in the history of America, with many big names like Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam, Woodford Reserve, and Wild Turkey taking center stage. But, while you can’t go wrong with any of these brands and expressions, if you really want to get the most out of this corn-based whiskey, you’ll try one of the countless lesser-known (but just as noteworthy) bourbons on the market.
A background on bourbon

Before we get into these underrated gems, it’s important to take a step back and let you in on the rules and regulations surrounding bourbon. Because there are a few. First, to be considered a bourbon, it must be made with a mash bill of at least 51% corn.
And while there are a handful of other rules, the second most important is based on geography. Bourbon, like Cognac in certain areas of France and tequila in specific Mexican states, can only be produced in the US. Even though someone might try to tell you that it can only be produced in Kentucky, that’s simply not true. Sure, more than 90% of all bourbon is made in the Blue Grass State, but it can be made anywhere in the US, including DC and Puerto Rico.
