Blinking Owl Distillery

Blinking Owl Distillery is located in "The Golden City" of Santa Ana and aims to be an iconic urban craft distillery in Orange County, California. With it’s name borrowed from an old Santa Ana bar, the Blinking Owl is ready to be intricately woven into the local scene.

While founder, Brian Christenson, inherited the passion for making booze from his boot-legging great-grandfather, we intend to LEGALLY carry on his family's “spirit” production by making vodka, gin, whiskies (including Bourbon) and specialty spirits.
Our classic spirits will certainly stand out with their California-centric twist, including locally sourced ingredients from community and urban farms, aging in California wine barrels, and collaborations with local chefs and breweries.
