Named for the First Round-Up
Pendleton whisky carries the spirit of the Pendleton Round-Up, one of America's great rodeos, and the 1910 bottling honors its inaugural year. The bottle itself is embossed with saddle-tooling detail and the Round-Up's bucking horse. Inside is a straight-ahead proposition: 100% Canadian rye, given a full 12 years in oak — the long rest rounds rye's natural spice into something smoother and fruitier. Pour it alongside the rest of our rye whiskey shelf, or see the brand's lineup on the Pendleton vendor page.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Nutmeg, cloves and dried pineapple. Palate: Apples, dried cherries and nutty toffee with muted tropical notes. Finish: Medium-dry with lingering tart cherry.
How to Enjoy
Neat or on a big rock it shows its 12 years; it also makes a refined, spice-forward Manhattan or Old Fashioned where the dried-cherry finish can come through.
