Product Description

rom its inception, Pendleton whiskey has been steadfast in honoring and supporting one of the most respected rodeos in the world, the Pendleton round-up. Dedicated to the directors of the round-up, this exceptional whiskey is aged twenty years in American Oak barrels then cut with pristine glacier-fed spring water from Oregon's Mt. Hood. The resulting expression carries warm notes of oak, cinnamon and rye followed by a mature, mellow finish. Enjoy neat to truly savor the essence of this true western tradition.

What critics and judges wrote

Beverage Testing Institute · August 2026
Aromas of all butter shortbread, tart tatin, vanilla, and glazed croissant … Silky notes of caramel, toffee, tart tatin and brown butter finish with a balancing hint of red apple skin tension to make a most sessionable Canadian Whiskey.

Whisky Advocate · Davin de Kergommeaux · 2017
A luxuriously creamy body coats your palate with mild vanilla, butterscotch, restrained white pepper, and nutty plum pudding. Pencil shavings punctuate a medium finish. Less complexity than its age predicts.

Distiller · Amanda Schuster
While there is a presence of classic fruit and spice aromas and flavors, this whisky has a pervasive acetone presence. It is rather light-bodied for a mature sipping whisky … The finish is drying, with some spice coating the tongue.

IWSC judges · Bronze · 2025
Notes of caramel and dried stone fruit lead to a creamy palate of vanilla and dried fruit. Honeyed sweetness and gentle spice on the finish.

Wine Enthusiast · P.P. · November 2006
The understated bouquet features earthy scents of wet forest and pine … The delicious palate entry is richly sweet; by midpalate the honey character turns more like cream sherry and dates. The finish is toffee sweet and fudge-like.
