New Gin, Vodka, Old Tom Gin, Menthe and Cacao

Seattle’s 1st Distillery Since Prohibition







Ebb + Flow Vodka....$26.99 / 750ml
Ebb + Flow Vodka is a single malt vodka made from 100% Palouse Malted Barley that has notes of vanilla and just a hint of natural sweetness. Unlike most mass market vodkas that are just water added to neutral grain spirits, we do mash, ferment and distill this one from scratch, grain to bottle.

Drink Spirits review:
Ebb + Flow Vodka is simply amazing. The combination of the vodka’s flavors and how they are delivered as well as the extraordinary quality in distillation make Ebb + Flow Vodka one of the most promising new entries into the vodka market that we’ve seen, and perhaps the best vodka made in America. Sound Spirits is small so their distribution isn’t national yet, but if Ebb + Flow is any indication of what they are capable of, we can imagine people going to great lengths to acquire their spirits. We simply can’t recommend it highly enough.
Highest Recommendation – Best of Class


Ebb + Flow Gin....$26.99 / 750ml
Ebb + Flow Gin is an amazing botanical spirit and was crafted to bring out the best in classic cocktails, with a rich balance of flavors: herbal, citrus and spice. Using a blend of malted barley and a neutral base, this gin has depth that other gins lack.

Sound Spirits Old Tom Gin...$26.99 / 750ml
Sound Spirits Old Tom Gin honors a long lost style of gin by pulling back on the piney juniper and allowing the orange, cardamom and elder flower to come forward, with an added touch of sweetness. We gently rest it on oak for a month to produce a delicate but delectable balance of flavor


Depth Cacao...$15.99 / 375ml
Depth Cacao is made with fair trade organic cacao nibs from Theo Chocolate. This liqueur is the essence of dark chocolate in liquid form. Nothing else on the market comes close to the complexity of depth and flavor. Have it up as a "chocolate martini" or in a classic cocktail like a Kentucky River.


Depth Menthe...$15.99 / 375ml
Depth Menthe will defy what people have come to associate with this type of liqueur. Distilled with organic herbs instead of being made with artificial flavors or compounded oils, the recipe includes spearmint, sage, ginger, lemon balm and just a hint of cinnamon. We can see bartenders reviving Stingers and Grasshoppers!
