Clear Creek Blue Plum Brandy

An unaged blue plum brandy, crisp and vibrant, bursting with fresh green apple and elderflower. A silken, lively palate unfolds to a clean, bone-dry finish of subtle crushed grape skin.

From the storied orchards of the Pacific Northwest, Hood River Distillers presents Clear Creek Blue Plum Brandy, a testament to the art of capturing unadulterated fruit essence. This exceptional eau-de-vie is a pure expression of ripe blue plums, meticulously distilled to preserve their vibrant character. Unlike aged brandies, it is bottled immediately, allowing the pristine flavors of the fruit to shine without the influence of wood. The result is a spirit of remarkable clarity and brightness, reflecting a commitment to authentic craftsmanship and a deep respect for the raw ingredients. Each sip offers a journey into the heart of the fruit, delivering a sophisticated and lively sensory experience that defines premium, unaged brandy.
