Brilliant Bourb’ from the City of Roses.
Putting women in control of anything is generally a good idea; having them create booze is a scientifically proven smart move, since they have more taste buds and 50% more olfactory cells; but the best idea is a distillery entirely ran by ladies, especially when their Master Distilleress (yeah, it’s a word now) is a biochemist with a master’s degree in distilling. In 2017, Jill, Molly, and Jesse launched Freeland Gin, named after Jill’s granny, who wouldn’t touch hooch, but told Jill that if you want something really good, you have to make it from the ground up. This Portland-based distillery celebrates the Northwest and all the good things it has to offer. Currently, the band of ladies creates a Bourbon and a Gin.
Freeland Bourbon celebrates the South and Grandma Freeland, the sharp lady from Texas – the namesake of the distillery. It’s a careful blend of two Bourbons (3 and 12 years), married by the M.D. Molly Troupe into a palatial harmony of caramel, vanilla, cocoa, and spice. The Spirit spends a couple of years in charred American oak before it’s finished in Pinot Noir barrels from the Elk Cove vineyards. Here’s to Bourbon and the ladies!

About the Flavor Spiral
What does Freeland Spirits Bourbon taste like?
Back to flavor spiral
The Flavor Spiral™ shows the most common flavors that you'll taste in Freeland Spirits Bourbon and gives you a chance to have a taste of it before actually tasting it.
We invented Flavor Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.

Straight Bourbon must be matured for at least 2 years. If a bottle has no age statement, it’s at least 4 years old.
Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.
Pinhook’s high-proof Bourbon won Gold at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, while the Straight Rye Whiskey won Double Gold the following year. In 2021, their Bourbon War Vertical Series 5 Year and the 2021 Flagship Bourbon won a Gold Medal each, with a Double Gold going to their Tiz Rye Time Vertical Series 5 Year. Pinhook is evidently doing something right!
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.
Sure, Kentucky gets all the press when it comes to Bourbon. And with good reason—nearly 95% of it is produced there. But Bourbon can be made anywhere as long as it's within the United States. Just ask states with budding distilleries like Illinois and New York.
