(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 14, 2012 ) Grants Pass, Ore.—Rogue Wilderness Adventures, an award-winning company that offers rafting, hiking, and fishing trips along Southern Oregon’s historic Rogue River is announcing an exciting new Rogue River rafting trip for 2012 that combines the best in Oregon Rafting with Oregon’s most award-winning small batch distillery. Oregon is experiencing a craft distillation revolution, and this unique trip gives travelers the chance to sample some of Oregon’s most exciting handcrafted spirits…and stunning landscapes.

Rogue Wilderness Adventures has partnered with Oregon-based Bend Distillery to offer this new rafting trip complete with an amazing collection of Oregon products coupled with outdoor adventure on one of America’s great rivers. Using Oregon ingredients, Bend Distillery is handcrafting some of the world’s highest quality spirits and will share the ins and outs of this industry.

Currently a handful of innovative, small distilleries are making handcrafted, locally distilled spirits available for the first time since prohibition in Oregon. Throughout the state, 31 independent distilleries have begun producing dozens of unique liquors and liqueurs. Everything from absinthe to vodka and whiskey is now available from local producers.
Oregonians are witnessing these pioneering distillers put the state into the national spotlight, just the way Oregon winemakers defined the Willamette Valley as a world-class wine region in the late 1970’s, and the small breweries of the 1980’s and '90’s have put Oregon at the forefront of the craft brewing movement. Premium spirit drinkers now have truly local, handcrafted, small-batch alternatives to the giant mass-marketed multi-national brands that currently dominate the liquor industry.
This exciting four day camping and lodge rafting adventure features exhilarating rapids and stunning scenery by day and guided spirit tastings by night. Each evening, the guest mixologist will share the best of Oregon Gin, Vodka, and Whisky and mix some fine cocktails while guests relax and rejuvenate riverside under the Oregon sky.

Trip Dates: August 27th through August 30th, 2012. Price: $1150 per person based on double occupancy. All food, lodging, camping gear, rafts and guides are provided. Trip departs from Merlin, Oregon. www.wildrogue.com .Contact: Brad Niva- owner 1-800-336-1647
