Pendleton® Whisky at the Pendleton Round-Up—Summer Sipping Doesn’t Get Any Better!
Knot up your bull rope, it’s just about Pendleton Round-Up time! September 9-16, 2023 (which includes all the pre-kickoff festivities) marks the 113th installment of the world famous rodeo in the Wild West.
“Let’er Buck!” has been the motto since the inaugural event in 1910 and you can be sure this is a highlight of our year, sharing a name and a hometown with them and all. Pendleton® Whisky is also a proud sponsor, we hope to see you there—this is a bucket list essential for anyone who’s inspired to live boldly, drink well, and taste the moment.
There’s one question we get asked a lot this time of year: “What are your favorite rodeo-inspired whisky cocktails?” Well, whether you’re lucky enough to be there in person or watch on the live stream, you can definitely enhance your experience with the right whisky pairing for rodeo watching.
