Oregon Cranberry Liqueur

Clear Creek Oregon Cranberry Liqueur

Clear Creek Distillery’s founder, owner, and Master Distiller Stephen R. McCarthy sure knows how to make the world’s best fruit spirits. Some of the finest restaurants and lounges in the world carry his micro liquors.

Steve McCarthy is one of the nation’s leading MicroLiquor entrepreneurs and pioneers–he started up Clear Creek Distillery in 1985. McCarthy’s family owns a fruit orchard in Portland, Oregon.

Steve came up with the idea to micro distill spirits during his early travels in Europe tasting brandy and other spirits. Brandy is made from wine that is distilled. The entrepreneurial thinking and drive gave Steve the idea to use his family’s locally grown fruit to make spirits just like he tasted in Europe. Clear Creek Distllery was born and the name comes from the creek that runs through the pear orchard in Parkdale, Oregon. Today, Steve buys more than 1 million pounds of Oregon fruit from farmers and orchards all over the state. Now this is MicroLiquor company is definitely creating American jobs!

Oregon Cranberry Liqueur is simply the best cranberry liqueur in the world. Oregon cranberries grown along the Southern Oregon cost are used to blend small batches and handcraft this terrific cranberry liqueur. This 39 proof liqueur is super tasty and wonderful on the rocks.

MicroLiquor can definitely tell this product was made by one of the leading micro distilling entrepreneurs in the world. The bottle is beautiful and practical, especially at the dinner table because it is does not block the company of others. Oregon Cranberry Liqueur has that homemade feel and taste that many people would love. MicroLiquor sampled this liqueur on some friends who typically don’t drink liqueurs and they thought it was super tasty and wonderful to drink after dinner with dessert.

MicroLiquor just loves this Oregon Cranberry Liqueur description:

The southwest corner of Oregon is remote, foggy, beautiful and empty. And in this somewhat unpropitious place an independent-minded group of farmers grows very good cranberries. We bring the cranberries from that far corner of our state, crush them, and soak them in our own house-made distillation of Oregon wine. After several months of this (maceration it is called) the resulting liquid is a thick, brilliantly colored, tart, raw cranberry liqueur. Then we tidy up a bit. We add a little sugar (no much, as you will notice when you taste!) and maybe a little cranberry concentrate for “rondeur”. -Clear Creek Distillery
