Mile High Spirits transforms a former auto garage in RiNo into Denver's craft distillery destination. Their tasting room buzzes with the kind of energy that pulls you in for one drink and keeps you for three. The whiskey program runs deep - think small-batch bourbons and ryes that actually taste like Colorado. Their gin gets serious attention too, with botanicals that make sense in a highball or neat pour. The space feels industrial but warm, with exposed brick and enough natural light to make afternoon tastings feel intentional rather than questionable. Perfect for the crew that appreciates craft spirits beyond the usual brewery circuit. Weekend crowds lean into serious spirit nerds mixed with RiNo explorers. The bartenders know their stuff and pour with confidence. Not your typical distillery tour - this feels more like discovering your new favorite neighborhood spot that happens to make exceptional spirits.
