About the Whiskey:
Experience Pipe Dream straight from the barrel in this limited edition cask
strength offering. Aged for a minimum of four years in the temperate climate of
the Northern California coast, explore new heights of Redwood Empire’s craft.

Established in 2015, we laid down our first grain to glass barrel. Originally embarking southeast and hand-picking older barrels, we now have the largest rick house in California. Aging along side our own growing inventory of distillate in the foggy mornings and temperate evenings in the region that inspired our name. Our distillery utilizes water from the nearby Russian River aquifer in combination with the best grains, many of which are from California. The result is consistently complex, and bold whiskey that is distinctly Redwood Empire.

Awards/Reviews:

91 Points - Whiskey Advocate:

"Spice-driven bakery shop aromas highlight the nose with notes of cinnamon babka, Christmas cake, gingerbread cookies, and powdered sugar sitting alongside a woodsy, pine forest quality. Water brings out toasted coconut and caramelized banana. A creamy and honeyed palate delivers tobacco leaf, vanilla cream, rye spice, cinnamon scone, and bitter chocolate. It’s zippy and benefits from added water. Whipped cream punctuates a lengthy finish Spice abounds on this robust and potent whiskey."
