About

Branch Point Distillery is a small independent grain-to-glass whiskey distillery founded in 2016 in the hills of Oregon’s Willamette Valley, surrounded by world-renowned wineries. Co-founder and distiller Steven applies his biochemistry and organic chemistry background to craft authentic Oregon whiskeys using local grains from family-owned farms, including triticale, rye, and barley grown within 40 miles of the distillery. The distillery eschews bourbon production in favor of innovative grain-focused whiskeys, utilizing traditional methods like grain-in fermentation, double copper pot distillation, low barrel entry proofs, and non-chill filtration to create distinctive spirits that reflect their Oregon terroir.
