But I’m glad you do!I agree with Maurice on this one. I don’t spend a lot of time or effort trying to convince myself of all the ‘subtle’ aromas and how many different flavors I can discern in my whisky.
I thought for certain that my bottle was from a bad batch… but after reading your review, and the feedback from others.. Under “facts” on the companies web page, you can find out that the whisky was aged in oak (really?) I enjoy a lot of different types whiskys (I’m not a fan of scotch though) and Pendleton is one of my favorite. I have both buyers and drinkers remorse.Really not a bad whiskey. But from what I am reading here, it looks like he might just be talking like a newbie.
It’s also not nearly as “strongly flavored” (in terms of oak) as most Bourbons, which are aged exclusively in new charred oak barrels (unlike scotch, which is usually “lighter” in flavor due to the use of previously-filled barrels).Stop promoting rodeos in your commercials.
), but it’s not worth any premium above the local crap you folks have. I either like the taste or I don’t and in the case of Pendleton, I do.“I like it” or “I don’t like it” is where I always start. Which, if you’re keeping track at home, is an error rate of 0.004%.
How about something positive?Clearly you haven’t looked at the rest of my site. Don’t you know the animal cruelty at those events. DON’T try the ‘local’ stuff! It should sell for around $9.95 in Oregon. I like my whiskey with just a couple ice cubes, and this stuff simply doesn’t taste good or smooth like that. Oddly, it is made from Oregon water and bottled in Oregon, to boot… yet it’s a Canadian whisky. A bad Canadian whisky can be a rough experience, but not all Canadian whiskies are bad, Good Canadian whisky can provide a wonderful, light, easy, and flavorful experience, ideal for those just starting to explore the whisky category.Hood River Distillers has done a superb job releasing a Canadian whisky that not only outclasses whiskies over twice its price, it makes a convincing argument for the category itself.
It's smooth, but still has a fire to it, and is subtly sweet. I know you said you didn’t care for Crown Royal, but the Northern Harvest Rye is quite excellent, and not like any of the other CRs, in my opinion… it’s kind of like a cheaper Lot 40. It’s also made from a 100% rye mash bill. Not a good idea. Awful, just plain awful.Not bad, not good. It looks like I’m stuck with a full bottle.
Pendleton 1910 Canadian Rye Whisky ($39.95, 40% / 80 Proof) – light gold in color, it’s clear that this whisky has been partially aged in more neutral oak. Recently I was shopping for a bottle for a photoshoot. While I do not care for their Small Batch, the Single Barrel is exceptional.
That’s the situation with Canadian whisky. When I taste something that I very much don’t like, I don’t sugar-coat it. I also keep it in my home bar.It’s a major brand for a reason, lots of folks like it. From its red bucking bronco logo to its folksy tagline (“Let’er Buck”), Pendleton has positioned itself as synonymous with all things cowboy.
I know I’m coming to this party a bit late in the game.
But I tried some Pendleton Whiskey a few years ago and pleasantly found it to taste totally differently than what I thought Whiskey tasted like.
:)I was with a number of buddies at a chuck wagon cooking competition, and this bottle was passed around the campfire after the competition was finished and late night stories were being told.
Pendleton is a fantastic sipping whisky.
Just sugary sludge.
I would say it could be a “beginner’s” whiskey given the price and easy flavor, but it will probably always remain in my top 10.I live here in Oregon where the Pendleton Roundup is one of the most anticipated annual rodeos in the western US.

it is in this vein that pendleton is pitching in to help western sports athletes losing wages due to covid-19 by supporting the protect the ride fund. Try Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye. It’s not my favorite but it is better tasting in the North then In the South but we all know we have a sweet tooth up here, eh? Just a whim based on a passing thought derived from a rumor.. so maybe just ignore everything I said..Thanks for the informative review. I wanted the bottle to have certain characteristics so I ended up with a bottle of Pendleton. Maybe store it in a decanter with the lid off? in Between $31 to $60, Canadian Whisky, Whiskey Reviews September 10, 2015 0. Canadian whiskies don’t have the same kind of reputation as their Irish counterparts, and that’s only partly deserved. Pendleton’s Canadian blended whisky (they spell it without the E) is aged for 10 years in barrels and bottled at 80 proof. Pendleton Whisky was created in 2003 to honor the American cowboy and celebrates the tradition of the Pendleton Round-Up, an annual rodeo in Pendleton, … It was basically caramel flavored rubbing alcohol, similar nose.
The only thing I would ever consider to mix with it would be a couple of ice cubes. Or maybe that’s just way too much effort to put into rescuing it when there’s so much awesomeness out there.
