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.

Bright and sweet while being a little dark and mysterious.
That’s this week’s Flavor of the Week, the Gold Dome. This summery cocktail inspired by the West Virginia capital building is one we served up at our July cocktail class. It combines our award-winning Karst Water Select Bourbon with house-made honey ginger simple syrup and two of our house-made bitters.
It’s a truly lovely cocktail, so come and get yours while we still have some of the syrup to make it. Once we run out, it’s gone!

The Bullock Distillery has been upgrading its lounge space with more music and more games! 🎲
Don’t just have a drink, make a night of it. Bring a friend or three, and then you can order a pizza from Larobi’s next door, put a record on, and grab a game to play. We’ve got everything from cards to dominoes to dice to other board games that are all free to use whenever you’re at the distillery. There’s fun for everyone to be had in the lounge at The Bullock Distillery.

Thank you to everyone that came out to the amazing Elk City Get Down that was put on by the Wine Down last weekend. We had a blast and hope you did, too! 🥳
There was a clear winner for most popular cocktail of the day, with the Strawberry Lemonade running away with it. Come by the distillery for the rest of the summer to try this simple but amazing mixture of our Leblanc Vodka, strawberry syrup, and lemon juice and find out why we didn’t stop serving them for five straight hours on Saturday. 🍹
