Mythology was founded in 2018 by three friends that seek out experiences through travel and adventure. Their passion is to bring people together, hear and share stories while enjoying whiskey, gin and cocktails. Everyone forms their own Mythology through travel, making connections and experiences and that is why they named the company Mythology. They've gained national recognition for their blending expertise. Their goal with each blend is to create a whiskey that is interesting, unique and where the sum of all parts is greater than each individual component.

Their Rackhouse in Steamboat Springs, CO sits at an elevation of 6,725 ft. above sea level. There is a natural spring running under the property, and they designed the Rackhouse with an earth floor to pull moisture from the ground and create natural humidity in the range of 70% to 90% inside the building compared to an average humidity of 35% outside. They have a sophisticated low frequency sound system in the building to use sonic aging during winter months that agitates the whiskey and influences wood interaction during winter months when the ambient temperature in their ski resort community is too low to create pressure inside the barrel naturally. \xa0
