Breckenridge Distillery, which coined itself the world’s highest distillery when it opened in 2008, has made a name for itself for its blended bourbon whiskey and other spirits. And it is now doing so for its cuisine. 

The distillery’s executive chef Robbie Reyes and his team, including cooks Dionisio Hernandez Migeul and Alejandro Rodriguez Valdez, took home a first-place award for their cooking at the Heritage Fire competition in Snowmass on July 29. The event brought together more than 20 high-profile Colorado chefs judged by a crowd of roughly 1,000. 

The Snowmass competition is one of more than a dozen hosted by Heritage Fire across the country, which has led cooking events in cities including Los Angeles, New York City, Miami and Austin. Now, Reyes and his team will go on to compete at a national level with the winners from 13 other states.
