She has arrived! 🎉

The Fifth Annual Release of Tanner’s Select Single Barrel Bourbon is on our shelves and ready to be enjoyed! This bourbon honors our owner, Dusta Tanner, a proud West Virginian born and bred in Spencer, West Virginia. Her family has lived there for eight generations, going all the way back to the city’s founder, Samuel Tanner. The proud West Virginia heritage of the Tanner family is in every dram poured of Tanner’s Select Single Barrel.

Dusta’s sister, our Sales Manager and cocktail guru, Royce Tanner, hand-selected the barrel for this special release bourbon. Royce’s impeccable palate found just the right blend of barrel spice and oaky goodness to whet your whistle and warm you right up.

Each bottle is personally signed by a Tanner and sells for $75 a bottle before tax. We’re selling this limited-time release bourbon until we run out, so come get your bottle today before it's gone!

🚨Red alert! 🚨

There are still seats open for our October cocktail class tomorrow! Along with a tour of our production facility and free hors d’oeuvres, you’ll be getting to make these three wonderfully warm and cozy cocktails:

🌳🌲 The Hollow - It starts with a mix of our White Dog Moonshine with that same moonshine infused with cinnamon, and then adds Apple C***r, simple syrup, and lemon with a cinnamon stick garnish to create a special fall take on a martini.

🎃 The PumKing Mule - We’ve taken the delicious imperial pumpkin ale from Southern Tier Brewing and cooked it down into a simple syrup for this drink. That plus our Moonrocks Rye Wh***ey, lemon juice, and some ginger b**r to top it off make for a pumpkin mule that will knock your stockings off!

🌙 Midnight on Kanawha - This luxurious take on an Old Fashioned uses our newly bottled batch of Piney Creek Bourbon, our brown sugar vanilla simple syrup, cold brew, toasted almond bitters, and Orleans bitters. It’s poured into a smoked glass and finished with an expressed orange peel garnish to make a drink so delightful and warm you’ll wish you were bundled up by the fireplace with a good book to read.

If you needed Thursday night plans, these cocktails and some great company at The Bullock Distillery are all you need, but make sure to grab your tickets now before we run out: https://square.link/u/HxSi1Jku

Tuesday is Royce’s favorite day at the shop.🤩

It’s Trial Tuesday! Royce will be behind the bar experimenting with cocktails all day for you to enjoy. Will it be using a never before seen simple syrup? Is there a new bitter she is trying? You’ll have to order one to find out. Order a Trial Cocktail, give your input, and you could be helping to shape the next great cocktail to hit Charleston! All Trial Cocktails are discounted to $9, so it’s a no brainer to give it a try.

Pop on in to see what funky flavors she’s slinging! 🧪🍹

There’s something about October cocktails that just hits different. 🍂🥃

Apple c***r. Cinnamon. Pumpkin b**r. Rye. Cold brew. Brown sugar. Toasted almond. Smoke. Basically, we took everything we love about a moody West Virginia fall and turned it into a cocktail class.

This Thursday, October 15th, we’re spending the evening shaking The Hollow, building a PumpKing Mule, and finishing things off with a smoked Midnight on Kanawha. Three cocktails, three different techniques, and plenty of little tricks to take home for your own fall cocktails.

If your ideal October evening involves good wh***ey, fall flavors, and hanging out with us in the Elk City Historic District, you know where to find us. 🌙🍎

History on the Rocks, take two! 🥃📚

We’re stoked to team up with the Marshall University History Department for the second round of History on the Rocks! We’re leaving the classroom behind to spend an evening talking history over well-crafted cocktails.

Our next stop on the lecture tour features Dr. Molly Mersmann with A Grave Affair: Victorian Death Culture. It's an exploration of the ghoulish side of 19th-century death culture, followed by plenty of time for questions and conversation.

Cocktails and mocktails will be available for purchase — and naturally, we’re working on something special behind the bar for the occasion. 👀

The sun is setting a little earlier, and evenings are finally starting to feel more like fall. You know what that means. It’s bourbon weather. 🥃🍂

Preferably in a rocks glass, preferably somewhere cozy, and preferably with nowhere else to be afterward.

We know a place. 😉

Hey y’all! We have an exciting announcement to make. It is just a week away from the release of perhaps our most popular special release, the Tanner’s Select Single Barrel Bourbon. It will be released next Thursday, October 15th at 11:00 AM.

The 2026 edition of Tanner’s Select is a 6-year-old single barrel. Warm caramel and vanilla greet the nose, which rolls into aromas of cherry, apples, cinnamon, and toasted peanuts. The palate starts immediately with cinnamon and vanilla on top of dark, sweet cherries, followed by a rich, spicy mid-palate and finishing with tannic oak, clove, and a hint of black pepper. Oak and cacao nibs linger beautifully.

Tanner’s Select honors our co-founder Dusta M. Tanner, who is a proud eighth-generation descendant of Samuel Tanner, the first settler of Spencer, WV. The story of her family’s determination and Appalachian grit lives on in each pour of this single-barrel bourbon. Royce Tanner, who is Dusta’s sister as well as our Sales Manager and resident Cocktail Guru, both selected the barrel and designed the label. Together, the Tanner sisters have crafted yet another spirit that feels like home in a glass.

This limited edition bourbon will be $75 plus tax here at the distillery. If you want to pre-order your bottle so that you don’t miss out, you can do so here: https://square.link/u/LyXRjSZZ
We’ll hang on to it for you until you can pick it up.

Come celebrate and raise a glass to heritage, craftsmanship, and true West Virginia family legacy. 🥃

Our cocktail guru Royce has dreamed up a fall-tastic cocktail menu and this may just be the best of the bunch.

Meet Me In the Woods is meant to evoke all the autumnal feelings of warmth and coziness. Hot mulled c***r, a bed of colorful leaves in a pumpkin patch, a well worn flannel shirt. This cocktail takes our award winning Karst Water Select Bourbon and partners it with apple c***r, our house Appalachian Espresso bitters, Peychaud’s bitters, and a wonderful wisp of cinnamon smoke to create a drink as warm and welcoming as a roaring bonfire on a crisp fall night.

You can come grab one of these delights, or any of our six unique fall cocktails, all autumn long at The Bullock Distillery. A wonderful night of drinks and memories awaits.

Your October plans should probably include drinking a smoked cold brew cocktail with us. Just saying. 🥃

Our October Cocktail Class is happening on Thursday, October 15 at 6:00 PM and here is our cocktail lineup:

🍎 The Hollow — Jupiter Gin, apple c***r & cinnamon
🎃 PumpKing Mule — MoonRocks Rye, pumpkin b**r & ginger b**r
🌙 Midnight on Kanawha — Piney Creek, cold brew, brown sugar vanilla & toasted almond

We’ll shake, stir, smoke, and probably make a little bit of a mess along the way. Plus, you’ll leave knowing how to make all three of these delicious fall cocktails yourself, which feels like useful information heading into the rest of October. 😉

Come spend a moody fall evening with us in the Elk City Historic District. 🍂
