True to the craft. Dedicated to quality. Obsessed with adventure.It was 1996, and all we wanted to do was live in the mountains and make great spirits. Over the years, that spark grew into a passion for making the best tasting spirits with the most natural ingredients available. Today, Crater Lake Spirits is one of Oregon’s oldest and largest distilleries serving up traditional spirits with spirited infusions.
Alan Dietrich and Jim Bendis founded the distillery in Bend, Oregon, during a time when craft beverages were on everyone’s mind. The Oregon and Washington wine business was well established, and breweries were just starting to take off. “The spark that did it for him was running through the woods and seeing all of the juniper, and nobody was making a craft gin out of it,” says Dietrich. In 1996, Crater Lake Spirits launched with its flagship gin, utilizing locally sourced juniper from Central Oregon’s high desert, along with the concurrent release of a vodka.
