WHISKEY

Our first whiskey, a Straight Oregon Whiskey, is scheduled to be release in early 2015. This noted, the whiskey will tell us when it's ready so we're not holding our collective breath. Please be sure to check back with us periodically and we'll be sure to let you know what the Whiskey Gods are telling us.
 
PACIFIC RUM (light)

Made from organic cane juice and distilled in our pot stills for maximum flavor retention, each drop of Pacific Rum (light) sees no less than 4 weeks in used bourbon barrels in order to impart even more flavor, complexity and softness. You’ll see this unique aging process in the color of the rum; a pale straw color, but more than anything you’ll taste it. In short, our barrel-aged light rum is both elegant and intense. We hope you’ll love it as much as we do.

TEMPERANCE LIMITED RELEASE SPIRITS

Bull Run Distilling Company is excited to reveal that we will be producing small-batch, limited release spirits that will only be available at the distillery. As these spirits will be in such limited supply we thought it appropriate to refer to them as our Temperance products. As for what we'll produce, we're keeping that a secret for now, but rest assured everything we produce will be unique and flavorful. Look for our first release of the Temperance line in late winter or early spring of 2012.
TEMPERANCE TRADER STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY

Bull Run Distilling Company's Temperance Trader line was born out of the desire to bring "other" amazing spirits to market -- spirits that we didn't craft, but which we were fortunate enough to find. In the case of Temperance Trader Straight Bourbon Whiskey it was love at first sip. In fact, we loved this whiskey so much we acquired all we could. While our Temperance Trader Bourbon was conceived in Bourbon Country, it was born in God's Country. That makes Temperance Trader Bourbon an Oregon original.

MEDOYEFF VODKA

The practice of drinking vodka with mixers and ice is wholly western in origin.  There is no cocktail culture in Eastern Europe. They drink their Vodka straight and therefore look for natural flavor and mouth feel from the raw vodka.  It's with this in mind that we have created Medoyeff Vodka, the first Russian-American vodka.

Using what he learned from his visits to Russian and Ukrainian vodka distilleries years ago, our head distiller uses a combination of charcoal and limestone to slowly filtering every drop of Medoyeff. This process removes any impurities, while retaining the natural character of the spirit. In fact, the limestone actually imparts a subtle minerally character to the finish that adds to the overall taste and complexity of

Medoyeff. The resulting spirit is so unmistakably Russian you're libel to shout "Na zdorovje" after just a sip.   

Tasting Notes

    Sight: clear and viscous
    Nose: clean, anise, herbal
    Initial Palate: slight sweet and spicy
    Mouth Feel: bright and bracing, full, weighty and lingering
    Finishing Palate: mineral notes, needle, clean

How Best to Enjoy

    Straight...as a perfect companion to food
    With a citrus twist...we like grapefruit
    In your favorite cocktail...try a classic
    Always from the freezer...no matter how you drink it
