The Northwest’s Largest and Oldest Distillery

Hood River Distillers has a rich and storied history that dates back to 1934. The company initially produced apple and pear brandies, using excess fruit from the valley’s abundant harvests. Over the years, Hood River Distillers expanded its product range to include a diverse array of spirits such as vodka, gin, rum, and whiskey, inspired by the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Today, Hood River Distillers continues to uphold its tradition of quality craftsmanship while embracing innovation. With a portfolio that includes award-winning spirits, the distillery remains a testament to the determination and passion of its founders, earning its place as a beloved and respected name in the spirits industry.

Located along the Columbia River with majestic Mt. Hood as its backdrop, Hood River Distillers has been at its current bottling facility in Hood River since 1969.
