I’m a sucker for good design

Sometimes I end up bringing a new bottle home to my Whisky collection with only the design of the bottle in mind. I have never tried the Pendleton Whisky from Canada. But one thing is for sure, next time I pass one I’ll buy one.

Damn good looking bottle. Found it while searching for something.
(Yeah yeah, I know…but I’m more of an explorer than a purist)

Short on Pendleton
Pendleton is an oak barrel-aged whisky distilled in Canada using the finest ingredients. Before bottling, Hood River Distillers in Oregon adds only the purest glacier-fed spring water from Mt. Hood (Oregon’s highest peak). Pendleton delivers an uncommonly smooth taste and a rich, complex flavor.

Pendleton Whisky was specifically created to celebrate the bold spirit of independence and hard-work ethic of the American cowboy and cowgirl. It’s borne of the rich tradition of the nearly 100-year-old Pendleton Round-Up, one of the most prestigious rodeos in the world. Each Pendleton Whisky bottle prominently features the rodeo’s famous bucking horse symbol and Let’er Buck slogan.
