Vancouver, Washington - Quartz Mountain Distillers, Inc. proudly announces the release of its first Bottle-in-Bond Bourbon, a true reflection of time, place, and craft. “This limited-edition, three-grain bourbon meets the strict standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, delivering a spirit that’s as honest as it is exceptional,” said Randy Kyle, Vice President of Quartz Mountain Distillers, Inc. 

Mashed, distilled, and barreled in the spring of 2020, this Bottled In Bond Bourbon was aged in Quartz Mountain Distiller’s bonded warehouse over five years and is the first Bottled In Bond Bourbon to be released within Southwest Washington State. 

Crafted with precision and purpose, the mash bill is made up of: 

68.7% Corn 

17.1% Wheat 

14.2% Vienna Barley 

Using corn and wheat sourced directly from farms in Eastern Washington, continuing Quartz Mountain’s commitment to supporting local agriculture and transparent sourcing.

The Bottled In Bond Bourbon was aged in new 53-gallon American White Oak barrels, expertly coopered by Kelvin Cooperage in Louisville, Kentucky. These barrels, known for their deep toast and superior quality, helped develop the Bourbon’s rich flavor profile—featuring notes of honeyed grain, warm spice, caramel, and a subtle malt sweetness from the Vienna barley. 

“Creating a Bottle-in-Bond whiskey isn’t just about following regulations—it’s about honoring a heritage of integrity,” said Randy Kyle of Quartz Mountain Distillers, Inc. “This bourbon was made in one distilling season, by one distiller, barreled and aged in our federally bonded warehouse, then bottled precisely at 100 proof. It’s a full expression of our commitment to craft.” 

This release is a celebration of patience, place, and tradition. With every bottle, Quartz Mountain Distillers invites you to taste a chapter of the Pacific Northwest’s growing reputation for world-class spirits. 

A bottle release celebration event has been planned for August 2, 2025 at the distillery from 12-6pm. This product will be available at that time at the distillery and from select retailers.
