LAZY K BAR WHISKEY ENTERS COLORADO MARKET THROUGH EXCLUSIVE DISTRIBUTION WITH BREAKTHRU BEVERAGE

Premium bourbon now available at select retailers and fine drinking establishments statewide

BOZEMAN, Mont. (January 21, 2026) – Lazy K Bar Whiskey announced today that it has entered the Colorado market, marking its continued expansion beyond Montana. The brand's eight-year-old straight bourbon whiskey is now available at select retailers and fine drinking establishments throughout the state, distributed exclusively by Breakthru Beverage.

Lazy K Bar Whiskey is a partnership between actor Cole Hauser, David Leuschen, owner of the historic Lazy K Bar Ranch in Big Timber, Mont., and beverage industry veteran Britt West. Bottled in Bozeman, Mont., the brand draws inspiration from the American West and the working ranch lifestyle that defined it.

"Colorado has a deep appreciation for craftsmanship, authenticity and great whiskey," said Hauser. "From mountain towns to urban cocktail bars, it's a natural next step for Lazy K Bar Whiskey, and we're excited to share what we've built with a new audience that values quality and heritage."

The eight-year-old Lazy K Bar Straight Bourbon Whiskey was previously available only in Montana and Texas, and online in select markets. The expansion into Colorado honors the shared heritage that has long connected Colorado and Montana, dating back to the era of open ranges and cattle drives along routes such as the historic Goodnight-Loving Cattle Trail. That corridor helped shape the working ranch culture of the American West, linking ranchers, land and livelihoods across state lines. For Lazy K Bar Whiskey, bringing the brand to Colorado is both a natural extension of that legacy and a tribute to the enduring spirit of the cowboy West, where tradition, grit and respect for the land remain central to the craft.

"Our bourbon is rooted in time, place and patience," said West, who brings more than 25 years of beverage alcohol industry experience to the brand. "From the mash bill to the barrel aging and final bottling in Montana, every detail is intentional. Partnering with Breakthru Beverage allows us to introduce Lazy K Bar Whiskey to Colorado in a thoughtful way, with the right retail and hospitality partners."

Lazy K Bar Straight Bourbon Whiskey is distilled and aged for a minimum of eight years in Kentucky before being bottled in Montana. The bourbon features a mash bill of 74% corn, 18% rye and 8% malted barley, is bottled at 92 proof, and aged in No. 4 "alligator char" barrels. The brand has earned critical acclaim, including a 98-point rating from Tasting Panel Magazine.

In Colorado, Lazy K Bar Whiskey is now available at select liquor retailers and fine drinking establishments, with additional accounts being added throughout the state.
