When Andrea and I purchased a piece of land in the Coast Range mountains nearly two decades ago, our dream was to farm responsibly, foster a family, and create beautiful wines. Since then, we've been fortunate to work with the incredible community of winemakers here in the Willamette Valley and see Trisaetum Winery exceed our original vision. Somewhere along the way, I began to develop an equal passion for spirits. The thought of founding a distillery became a second dream, but one that figured to remain dormant until my daughter Tatum began developing her own passion for spirits. When Tatum expressed the desire to begin distilling together, the vision of winemakers turned distillers became something we had to do. At Brixeur Spirits, we take a winemaking approach to distillation and aging of spirits. We taste constantly, obsess over ingredients and can't help but experiment. In fact, our biggest challenge is knowing when to stop and finally agree a spirit is worthy to bottle and carry the Brixeur Spirits brand.
