At Willow Creek Distillery, we don’t just make spirits—we craft bold expressions of the Central Coast. Founded by Opolo Vineyards in 2013, our mission has been to redefine what it means to distill with purpose, passion, and precision. Led by Head Distiller Kevin Coulton, whose roots run deep on the Central Coast, every batch reflects our relentless pursuit of character, quality, and creativity. From grain or grape to glass, Willow Creek is where tradition meets innovation—one spirited pour at a time.
Our Muddy Waters Coffee Liqueur features rich, aromatic beans from Coastal Peaks Coffee, a micro roaster in San Luis Obispo known for their small-batch perfection. When it comes to whiskey, we’ve teamed up with our friends at Firestone Walker Brewing Company, using our grain bills and their brewing expertise to craft wort as the base for something truly special—where the worlds of craft beer and craft spirits collide.
And we don’t stop there. Our brandies and liqueurs are born from estate-grown fruit, hand-picked and distilled with care to preserve every drop of natural flavor. Whether it’s a vibrant and delicious barrel aged brandy, or a robust and tantalizing liqueur, you’ll taste the Central Coast in every sip. Willow Creek isn’t just about what we make—it’s about where we make it, who we make it with, and how every bottle tells a story of local pride and passionate craftsmanship.
