Reviews
"My wife and I went in around 5pm on 12/19/22 and just wanted to check it out. We wach did a sample tasting and really enjoyed it. I didn't get the young ladys name but she was wearing a red sweater with deck the halls with hops and barley on it. She was very accommodating and extremely knowledgeable about the array of liquors. We really enjoyed the experience. Thank you."
"Our stop at HRD was one of our trip highlights. Located off Oak St in Hood River, they were super accommodating for our party of six when we dropped by for a tasting without a reservation! You choose 5 items from their menu per tasting - they have a variety of spirits or you can choose mini cocktails off their seasonal cocktail menu - the mini cocktails are a must try because they are so creative! Our server did an amazing job explaining the different types of spirits, sharing the history of the distillery and giving mixed drink suggestions for each. She was extremely knowledgeable about the products she was serving us. Needless to say, we left with souvenirs. Favs were Ullr, Yazi and some Portland Syrups. Those syrups are also amazing!"
"Friendly staff with monthly creative cocktail tasting! Stop in to grab a bottle of your favorite spirits or try something new! I love that they carry The Bitter Housewife cocktail bitters and edible glitter so you can re-create your favorite drinks at home! Tastings are just $3! We tried City of Roses & Ulle's Arrow. So good!"
"Very nice tasting room with a wide selection of spirits and cocktails (or mocktails for the driver). $2 per sample (0.5 oz), $3 per mini cocktail, and $6 for a full sized mocktails. All of it was delicious. Friendly and knowledgeable staff complete the experience. We tried the timberland vodka (good), clear creek pear brandy (excellent), old delicious bourbon barreled apple brandy (good), trail's end Oregon oak finished bourbon 10 year (very good), McCarthy's single barrel select (cask strength - very peaty but very good/smooth), McCarthy's Oregon single malt whiskey 6 year (very good) and big gin (excellent). Someone traveling with us is very well versed (works in industry) and they were impressed. Also ordered the strawberry lemonade and it was delicious."
"5 samples of spirits or cocktails per person max at a few dollars each. Knowledgeable staff. The bourbons run hot. The pear brandy is sublime. Great place to shop to restock your home bar with local spirits & accoutrement."
