Tim Yanke is an undeniable American original. As an artist, Yanke makes compelling use of the unique colors and rich cultural heritage of the Southwestern United States to create bold, rhythmic, and fabulous art that he calls Abstract Expressionism. Yanke believes in creating fine art that comes from the heart, remains tethered to the creative innocence of youth, and pays attention to true, raw emotions during the creative process. It’s this same passion and dedication he is now brining to an exciting new collaboration with the appropriately named purveyors of fine American bourbon, Abstraction Spirits.

Abstraction Spirits was founded on the idea of matching quality alcoholic spirits with stunning works of art to create a premium product that’s every bit as enjoyable to drink as it is to display proudly in any home or office. All Abstraction Spirits bottles feature an exclusive fine art label that helps to make every single sip a small but significant celebration of craftsmanship, flavor, art, and tradition. The art of two Park West favorites adorn bottles of Abstraction Spirits, including Jim Warren’s ode to Salvador Dalí on the six year high rye bourbon named Time Slipping Away and now, Tim Yanke’s evocative Southwest-styled homage to life on the range that compliments the look of This Ol’ Cowboy, a 9-year bourbon, bottled uncut and unfiltered at barrel strength in batches of three barrels.

Behind a distinctive label featuring a cowboy sitting proud and true on his trusty steed with a parade of colors combined with the colors of America in the background, This Ol’ Cowboy delivers the following delicious tasting notes to discerning drinkers:

Nose – very subtle apple crumble
Palate – Finely tuned balancing act of autumn pear spice and toffee
Finish – a medium finish of spiced jam

This bottle, along with Time Slipping Away, is available at select distributors around the country.  You can check out abstractionspirits.com to find a store locator near you.
