Maker Notes

The clear fruit brandies of France also known as eau de vie, which translates to “water of life”. Most European countries have a local term for the clear, bone-dry brandies distilled from the regional fruit. Usually bottled at around 80 proof, these spirits are typically served at the end of a meal, or between courses, as the perfect digestif. These fruit brandies are traditionally un-aged to maintain the wonderful intensity of the fruit. The heart of Clear Creek’s product line is our fruit brandies, which are all made according to old world techniques traditionally used in Europe. We use only pure, whole Pacific Northwest grown fruit. Our flagship Pear Brandy takes 20 lbs of pears to make one 750 ml bottle.

OUR UNAGED BRANDIES INCLUDE: 

Pear Brandy, Pear in Bottle, Blue Plum (Slivovitz) Brandy, Cherry (Kirschwasser) Brandy, Douglas Fir Brandy, and Raspberry (Framboise) Brandy

The 2023 Edition explores dynamic, multisensory dimensions inspired by the whisky's unique tasting notes, while the addition of 'one cut' of water opens up a new, sensorial world from pear to almond biscotti. This high strength release demonstrates The Macallan’s ongoing quest to seek out the extraordinary.

PEAR. ALMOND. VANILLA.
This exceptional single malt has matured in a union of ex-Bourbon American oak and sherry seasoned European oak casks.

Immerse yourself in a world of flavours, where the essence of fresh pear and almond biscotti takes centre stage. Through a mesmerising catwalk experience, vibrant fabrics and colour choices evoke the freshness of the unique pear tasting note, whilst the flowing texture of a golden gown represents the almond biscotti flavour profile that is revealed with ‘one cut’ of water.

THE EXPERIENCE

PALATE/TASTE: Sweet and creamy vanilla, juicy pears and lemon peel with delicate oak

FINISH: Medium with sweet oak and almond biscotti

WHISKY MAKER NOTE: At full strength (50.3%) the prominent character of the spirit is pear. When ‘one cut’ of water is added, the strength is reduced to 40%, and almond biscotti steps forward as a flavour.

The seed for the nectar of the gods was sown in the barren desert. Many millennia have passed since barley has bloomed in the inhospitable climate of Rajasthan. For our uncompromising quest to create the finest spirits, we use the traditional Indian six row barley, which is cultivated using old indigenous practices that rely on organic and sustainable methods. The yield may be smaller but it lends a fruity and floral distinctive taste to the spirits.

Excellent as an aperitif, this AUTHENTIC ITALIAN sparkling wine also pairs well with cheese, fresh seafood, and your favorite shellfish.

This renowned Premium Prosecco Superiore DOCG comes from the extraordinary Veneto area of the Asolo Hills. It’s a balanced mix between history and tradition, where the grapes are grown following the certified organic production standard by Sacchetto.

We always fall in love with the uncut flavor, now you can too with the addition of this “Farm Strength” version of our flagship bourbon. Each batch will now feature both our signature 90 proof and this “uncut” expression. We named it “Farm Strength”, inspired by how we like to enjoy our whiskey on the ranch.

ALL NATURAL SPIRITS

In the crowded world of vodka, something was missing. There were no natural options. Artificial fruit extracts, flavors, and colors lined the shelves, and we knew something had to be done. So through our desire for naturally infused spirits, Wild Roots was born.

As natives to the Pacific Northwest, we knew there were few places in the world that produced fruit as flavorful and abundant as Oregon’s Willamette Valley. The rich soil, pure water, and exceptional climate allow the fruit to develop unparalleled taste and balance—which is crucial for creating an authentic tasting spirit.

Each bottle of Wild Roots starts with 6 times filtered corn-based vodka, infused with real fruit the Pacific Northwest is best known for. To capture the essence of the beautiful Northwest, we chose fruits that weren’t only rich in flavor, but history as well. 

Wild Roots Huckleberry 

Infused with real fruit, this spirit tastes like a tart, sweet and juicy huckleberry. It is silky smooth with a light and bright flavor.

No artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors.

Patron El Cielo sets a new standard for silver tequila with its innovative distillation process. By distilling the spirit four times and utilizing a unique, small copper pot still at the Hacienda Patron, Master Distiller David Rodriguez has unlocked the sweet flavors of agave for an unparalleled taste experience. The tequila is then chill-filtered to achieve an incredibly smooth, yet complex taste that is both light and naturally sweet.

Crafted from only the highest-quality 100% Weber Blue Agave, Patron El Cielo balances the flavors of cooked and fresh agave to create a delicate sweetness that lingers on the palate. The tequila's natural taste is captured in an iconic glass bottle, adorned with gold foiling and designs inspired by the Jalisco Highlands of Mexico.

Patron El Cielo's tasting notes are impressive: the clear liquid boasts a nose of cooked agave, sweetness, and fruitiness, while the palate delivers a blend of cooked agave, sweetness, fruitiness, and hints of citrus. The finish is smooth, with a long-lasting, sweet flavor of cooked agave.

Tromba Australia where it all started...

La Tromba is Spanish slang for a sudden and intense rain storm. But it’s much more than that. It means something big is happening – change is brewing and nothing will ever be the same again. 

So when three friends, Eric Brass, Nick Reid and James Sherry, met in Guadalajara back in 2005, it was between sips of tequila that they made a pact to no longer live conventional lives or work typical jobs. For them, everything would change as they vowed to make extraordinary tequila their passion to pursue. They found partners in maverick master distiller, Marco Cedano, and his son, Rodrigo. These were men skilled in the art of turning blue agave into bottled brilliance.

Despite having little money and many naysayers, the partners traveled bar to bar to build the groundswell for their tequila – one made in the rugged Jalisco highlands where the finest tequilas in the world hail from. This is where we work to define a powerful force in new world tequila – Tequila Tromba. Every bottle contains the perfect storm of youthful boldness and weathered wisdom; embodying the adventurous spirit of those who make it for those who wish to take life by storm.

A deep gold color, Tromba Añejo is aged in white oak barrels for 20-24 months and exudes agave flavours rich in complexity. Gentle hints of oak and caramelized agave sweetness paired with rich chocolate, nuts and ripe dried fruit. Expect a sophisticated, honeyed finish.
