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.

Our crew experiments with a lot of different cocktails at the Distillery, and sometimes the result is so good we have to share it with everyone on our cocktail menu. That is certainly the case with the Bullock Noir, a darkly sweet take on the Old Fashioned that is one of the favorites at the shop.
This drink starts with our Piney Creek Bourbon, a Rye-forward bourbon expression that is in partnership with the West Virginia Land Trust, and is complemented by Royce’s in-house brown sugar vanilla simple syrup and Appalachian Espresso bitters. And while you don’t have to, we think that this cocktail is best served smoked.
Come try the Bullock Noir for yourself and discover your new favorite cocktail. 🥃

We don’t just sell our own spirits here at Bullock Distillery, we also support local West Virginia producers by selling their products on our shelves. We have a variety of products to come and peruse, from coffee, to honey, to beard oil and more!
Today we want to highlight one of the newest additions to our wall of West Virginia, The Stockpot. A producer of hot sauces and seasoning blends from right here in Charleston, their Dragon’s Tears hot sauce is sure to spice up any dish you use it in! Or you can try their homemade dill pickle spears. We love them and use them to garnish our Bloody Bullocks cocktail, but they are great paired with a solid sandwich as well.
Make sure to keep supporting local and buy some awesome WV-produced products whenever you stop by the distillery.
