All sales from the Stranahan’s Snowflake Vault Auction will benefit the local community affected by the Colorado wildfires, with 100% of proceeds going to the Colorado Firefighters Foundation and Stranahan’s matching all proceeds up to $25,000. Specifics of the auction make mention that there’s only 1 win per fan that’s 21 or older, and that you must make your way to the distillery to physically pick up your prize with a year.

Snowflake, for those that don’t know about it, is described by Stranahan’s as an expression that’s crafted via “using a variety of unique barrels from all over the globe. Our limited-release Snowflake whiskey batches are first aged to fruition no less than two years in new white American oak barrels with a #3 char, before transferring the finished whiskey into used wine, sherry, cognac, rum & tequila barrels, absorbing the uniquely rich flavors from the casks.” It is only released once a year, typically in December, though for this year it has been pushed instead to February, 2021.
