A Woman’s Place Is In The Distillery

Did you know that only 1% of distilleries in the U.S. are owned by women?! Lucky us, Portland is home to Freeland Spirits – a woman-founded and run distillery nestled in an industrial space just off Northwest 23rd. Former agriculture educator and nonprofit leader Jill Kuehler teamed up with distiller Molly Troupe (who has a background in biochemistry, and a Masters in distilling, nbd!), and Freeland Spirits was born.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Look for their gin and bourbon in unique teardrop-shaped bottles at the liquor store this holiday season, or swing through their HQ for a tour and a martini.

Cheers!
