Ocean’s Daughter Distillery
Spirit Tasting & Sales
Ocean’s Daughter Distillery spirits are produced by Westport WInery. They are available for tasting exclusively in the gift shops of Westport Winery and the International Mermaid Museum at Westport Winery Garden Resort.
We cannot sell spirits online. We are licensed to ship spirits in Washington State and to North Dakota. To place a shipping order to addresses in either of these states you can call the winery tasting room at 360-648-2224.
Whiskey
We produce four whiskeys including Barrel Ride our single malt whiskey, Bowsprit maple chai whiskey, HMS Bounty apple cinnamon whiskey, and Riptide our delicious brown sugar vanilla whiskey.
The common question is about the differences between whiskey, Scotch, bourbon and rye. The example given in research is likened to the idea that all squares (sub-categories of whiskey) are rectangles (whiskey) but not all rectangles (whiskies) are squares (sub-categories).
Further confusion is in the correct spelling. Whiskey is spelled with an “e” in the United States and Ireland (countries with “e” in their names) or without an “e” (whisky) in Scotland and Canada (no “e” in the name of the liquor or the country).
The spirit type is whiskey. All Scotch, bourbon, and rye are whiskies:
- Scotch is made in Scotland and must be 51% malted barley.
- Bourbon is made in the USA and must be 51% corn.
- Bourbon is mostly made in Kentucky (Jim Beam) and Tennessee (Jack Daniels).
- Tennessee bourbon must be sugar maple charcoal filtered.
- Rye is made in the USA and Canada.
- In the US it must be 51% rye (a specific grain).
- In Canada it may or may not include rye (can be a variety of grains).
