California based Old Trestle Distillery is proud to announce the release of Sierra Vodka, the only vodka made in Tahoe with 100% Sierra Nevada sourced water. To celebrate the release, Old Trestle Distillery will partner with Truckee-based Old Town Tap for a New Year's Evening of dinner and drinks to close out 2019 and ring in 2020 in style.

Sierra Vodka is the first vodka to be fermented, distilled, filtered, bottled, and labeled in the Truckee/Tahoe region. An American corn-based vodka, made from 100% California Yellow Corn is grown in the Sacramento Valley, Sierra Vodka is a utilitarian ode to the lifeblood of the Truckee/Tahoe region. The sweet aromas of the vodka allude to the base grain of corn, while the flavor is balanced with a clean, crisp, and sturdy finish.

"We are thrilled to announce the release of Truckee/Tahoe's first Vodka that is truly from the region," said Jake Holshue, Master Distiller at Old Trestle Distillery. "This release is another step in Old Trestle's journey to take the elements and terroir of the mountains in which we live and present them to the world in the form of high-quality spirits."

Come join the teams from Old Trestle Distillery and Old Town Tap for a special educational taste event on New Year's Eve this year. Chef Jon Rosa has crafted a five-course meal highlighting seasonal ingredients, and some special elements that you'd want to see on a New Year's Eve menu. Pairing with the meal, Spirits from Old Trestle Distillery will be masterfully blended with five unique cocktails highlighting Vodka and Gin all made locally by Master Distiller, Jake Holshue.
