You will have the opportunity to taste a variety of brandies and liquors from their distillery. Some are sweet, some dry, and it was a nice experience. Doesn't last past a half hour, and is a nice change of pace. I would advise to skip the Pine flavor infused brandy, but the others, especially the pear were decent.

We had a great time doing something different, liquor tasting at 10am is always good! I wish I could remember the name of the woman who gave us the tutorial of the products that they make because she was informative and nice to visit with. We left with two delicious bottles of liquore and will look for their beverages when... More

We dropped by the distillery to pick up some eau to vie for a friend, and ended up sampling a wide range of liqueurs and grappas. We not only learned a great deal, we acquired some interesting items and had a wonderful time. A bit out of the way, but a stop not to be missed when visiting Portland.

She was so knowledgable on the products we were sampling and learning about the process from... More

I went on the tour today and it was wonderful. Gracious, amusing folks who love what they do. Their spirits are exceptional, their liqueurs are great. The best part is it's free. Who knew??

Oregon is known for some fine craft breweries but now there is a movement for craft distilling. Steve McCarthy of Clear Creek has been ahead of the curve with his distillery. He started 23 years ago. He has an interesting line of Eaux de Vie, brandy distilled from fruit wine. They even have some brandy bottled with fruit grown in... More
