Leopold Bros. Distillery Crafts Monument Canyon Trail Whiskey

Colorado-based Distillery Leopold Bros. Teams Up with CNMA
We are thrilled to share this collaborative spirit, Monument Canyon Trail whiskey. With proceeds from each sale of this specially crafted blend going to support public lands.
Colorado National Monument Association (CNMA) is thrilled to announce a new collaboration with renowned Colorado-based distillery Leopold Bros. The distillery has crafted a special whiskey called Monument Canyon Trail, with 10% of every bottle sold benefiting CNMA and its work supporting Colorado National Monument.
A Spirit with Purpose
Leopold Bros., an independently owned and operated distillery founded by brothers Todd and Scott Leopold, is known for its commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and community.
“At Leopold Bros, we fuse heritage craftsmanship with innovative design, seeking to restore the artisanship of previous generations while adding a conservationist mindset to that legacy,” distiller Todd Leopold stated.
“Our father Bob Leopold worked at the Bureau of Land Management for his entire career, while Scott did his MS in environmental engineering at Stanford, becoming a pioneer in sustainable factory design. Everything we do is in concert with nature.”
The Leopold Bros. team has long held a deep appreciation for Colorado’s public lands. Creating Monument Canyon Trail is their way of giving back to one of the state’s most iconic landscapes.
