Fine Appalachian Craft Spirits
Fine Distilled Spirits
It’s a family tradition.
With American family roots dating back to 1630, we have a long tradition of distilling in our blood.
The Bullock Distillery was organized in 2017 by Dusta Tanner, John Bullock and Tighe Bullock when the trio remodeled the historic building at 121 Washington Street, West, Charleston, West Virginia.
Dusta and the Tanner family have a long history of making moonshine in Roane County, West Virginia.
The Bullock family has produced spirits in Robeson County, North Carolina since before the American Revolution.
Both families are proud of their distilling traditions.

Our Special Ingredient?
Water.
Where does The Bullock Distillery draw its water from?
Bullock’s Cave, Falling Spring Mountain, Greenbrier County, West Virginia!
Falling Spring Mountain is truly a geologic phenomena, acting as a buffer zone for the hydrologic gradient of the Karst water system of the Greenbrier Valley. Our system in Greenbrier Valley drains deep groundwater from the base of Droop Mountain and Falling Spring Mountain.
Unlike other distilleries, The Bullock Distillery does not use reverse osmosis or carbon filtration to treat our water.
Why? Because our limestone water lacks the heavy elements present in the water of most distilleries. And it strips the natural sweet flavors of pure Karst limestone water!
Bacteria and viruses are taken care of during the fermentation and distillation processes. This ensures that only the mountain’s natural limestone filtration system touches our water.

September is here, which means I can officially start romanticizing fall. 🍂
Cool mornings. Mountain roads. Apple butter. Changing leaves. Old sweaters. Golden hour getting a little earlier every night.
Our September Cocktail Class is inspired by all of my favorite little pieces of fall in Appalachia, with three cocktails built around the flavors that make this time of year so good.
Think apple, fig, sage, maple, cinnamon, bourbon, and just a little bit of smoke.
📅 Thursday, September 17 at 6 PM
🥃 Three cocktails + distillery tour + light hors d’oeuvres
🎟️ $50 per person

I know some of you have been waiting for it. We finally got a new T-shirt and hat order to replenish some of our apparel stock, but we also have a surprise for you!
Along with our Bullock logo and Bullock Cave shirts, we are premiering a brand new t-shirt design! In honor of one of our signature cocktails and the woman behind the incredible story, we now have Delia May’s Revenge shirts in sizes Small to 3XL.
Delia May was the wife of Gespard Leblanc, the great-great-grandfather of our owners, and the namesake of our Leblanc Vodka. The story goes that Delia didn’t like that her husband made distilled spirits in their basement and one day threw an actual cherry bomb down the steps to stop it! Windows got blown out, the still was busted, and no more distilling happened in that basement after that.
We liked the story so much that we made a smoky cherry vodka cocktail to commemorate it, and now you can wear this shirt to rep this tasty drink and the story behind it. Come in and get yours today, or visit our online store: bullockdistillery.square.site/s/shop

A new cocktail has resurfaced from the depths. Royce has revived one of our cocktails from the archives! 😳
A long lost cocktail, the Southside Dill has returned to our cocktail menu. This unique gin cocktail pairs our Jupiter Gin with a housemade honey simple syrup and lemon juice to create a wonderfullly drinkable gin sour. But wait… it’s called the Southside Dill, right? Yes! On top of a more typical gin sour, we add a sprig of fresh dill, 2 dashes of housemade mint bitters, and 3 dashes of housemade Smoked Salt and Sorghum bitters to add a subtle depth and complexity that will keep you coming back for more again and again.
Come and try this forgotten cocktail while it’s available, for we can only keep it revived for so long. 🍸
