Crater Lake

Crater Lake Spirits is a Bend, Oregon craft distillery producing vodka, gin, whiskey, rye, hazelnut espresso vodka, and liqueurs from locally sourced Pacific Northwest ingredients — one of Oregon’s original and most established craft distilleries, founded in 2001.

The distillery takes its name from Crater Lake National Park and Oregon’s iconic natural landmark. Every expression is produced at the Bend facility using Pacific Northwest grains, fruits, and botanicals. The lineup reflects both classic craft expressions — estate vodka, gin, rye — and distinctively Pacific Northwest originals like the Hazelnut Espresso Vodka, which uses Oregon hazelnuts and cold-brew coffee.
