Crater Lake Estate Rye Whiskey

Crater Lake Estate Rye Whiskey is a straight American Rye Whiskey that begins with just 14 acres of legacy rye grain and lava rock filtered water.

Grown, distilled, and aged entirely at our distillery in Bend, OR., this 100% rye mash is distilled annually in single batches and aged at least five years in the Central Oregon High Desert. 

With only a few barrels produced each year, this is truly one of the world’s rarest rye whiskies.

Crater Lake Reposado Agave Spirit

We had a unique opportunity to age a blanco tequila for 8 months in our Crater Lake Reserve Rye barrels, giving us our limited release Reposado Agave Spirit. It’s a delicious riff on a classic barrel aged spirit.

  • 91.2 proof
  • 45.6% ABV

Tasting Notes

Nose: Light, earthy, and woody notes combine to tantalize the nose with hints of the desert.

Taste: Front of the palate receives an agave cactus tingle. Middle and back of the palate are smooth oakiness.

Finish: A combination of oak and agave leaves a wonderfully light finish that lingers awhile in just the right proportions.
