Behind the Bottle: Pendleton® Whisky Midnight

Made for the moments you want to savor, Pendleton® Whisky Midnight is crafted for those times when you’ve earned a reward rich enough to reflect all your hard work. Whether you’re gathered around the campfire after the hunt or winding down from a long day on the ranch, Pendleton® Whisky Midnight is the perfect transition from day to night, inspired by conversations had at sundown. 

The Inspiration Behind Pendleton® Whisky Midnight

Pendleton® Whisky Midnight was inspired by and crafted for the people who embrace our Western way of life. Whether on a hunt or a cattle drive, hard-working people need a spirit that’s both robust and easy-drinking and can stand on its own without ice or a mixer—and that’s the essence of Pendleton® Whisky Midnight.

Whisky is the drink of choice in cowboy culture. We work hard, play hard, and never shy away from a challenge. After all, Pendleton® Whisky isn’t just poured, it’s earned. That kind of grit continues to embody the spirit of the American West. Pendleton® Whisky Midnight celebrates these people as much as their way of life, delivering a smooth, rich, complex, and satisfying whisky worthy of its status.

Handcrafted with Pride

As with all Pendleton® Whisky variants, each blend uses only the finest ingredients. Each whisky has its own unique profile based on the types of grains and the barrels used to age and mature the spirit to perfection. Premium Northern grains and the purest glacier-fed water from Mt. Hood in the Cascades are what puts our whisky a cut above.

Pendleton® Whisky Midnight is aged up to six years in American brandy barrels before being bottled and cut to 90 proof using only Mt. Hood glacier water. Its distinctive full-bodied profile and strength make it a unique part of our portfolio and a hands-down fan favorite.

The Ultimate Spirits Challenge awarded Pendleton® Whisky Midnight a 96-point rating. Men’s Journal describes it as “approachable and welcoming” and talks about its ability to transform tried-and-true flavors in classic cocktails, underscoring its versatility and broad appeal.

Whether you like it neat, over ice, or as the base of your favorite whisky cocktail, Pendleton® Whisky Midnight’s smooth complexity reveals craftsmanship, quality, and tradition in every sip.

A Well-Earned Reward at the End of the Day

The flavor profile speaks of the West, with fall fruits, musky notes of leather, and finishing full-bodied with nutty, spicy notes to warm the soul. The palate unwinds slowly, inspiring another sip, another story, another moment to remember.

Truthfully, there is no wrong way to enjoy Pendleton® Whisky Midnight. It’s the perfect end to a long day, no matter what that day entailed—and that’s what it was created for. Of course, you don’t have to be a cowboy or outdoors person to enjoy Pendleton® Whisky Midnight; all you need is good friends, some time, and a place to relax.

Enjoy Pendleton® Whisky Midnight around the campfire while sharing stories after the hunt or when you need an exceptionally smooth whisky after a long, hard day at work. Pour Pendleton® Whisky Midnight in those moments when you reconnect with old friends or when your favorite tune plays and everything is in perfect harmony.

Ways to Enjoy Pendleton® Whisky Midnight

Pendleton® Whisky Midnight is made to be enjoyed neat. Its rich warmth envelops the palate with sweet and spicy flavors that satisfy. Around the campfire, on the ranch or after the hunt you might not have the luxury of ice or extra accouterments, so you want a spirit that does it all.

At home, pour it over ice or use it as the star ingredient in a signature cocktail. We recommend browsing our cocktail lineup as it has recipes dedicated specifically to Midnight. The Canadian Old Fashioned, Midnight Manhattan, and Midnight Boulevardier are just a few examples you can try at home.

If you are interested in grilling with whisky, Pendleton® Whisky Midnight is an excellent addition to sauces and marinades, like the backstrap glaze suggested by our partner, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF). Use your culinary imagination—and be sure to enjoy a pour while you’re cooking for extra enjoyment! 

Made for All Your Moments

Add a bottle or two of Pendleton® Whisky Midnight to your bar collection. Whether you’re toasting a milestone, or gathered around the campfire at the end of a long day, savor the moment and make it Midnight.
