The long-awaited first batch of Wyoming Whiskey sold out in a matter of minutes after it was released earlier this month. Wyoming Whiskey is made in small batches and aged at least three years. The traditional bourbon is made in a non-traditional place – Kirby, Wyo. – and is only sold in the Cowboy State. The wheat and barley is raised in the Kirby area and the water comes from the Madison Formation in the Big Horn Basin.
