What Batch 206 Distillery does

Old Log Cabin Distillery (legally Evergreen Distillery LLC, formerly Batch 206 Distillery) is a Seattle-based craft distillery founded in 2012 that operates a single production site at 1417 Elliott Avenue West. The company produces a small-batch portfolio of spirits built around the Old Log Cabin Bourbon Whiskey heritage brand (acquired in 2012, with roots claimed to 1840) and its aged variants (7-year, 10-year, and French Oak 11-year). The Batch 206 sibling brand encompasses clear spirits including Batch 206 Vodka, Counter Gin, Old Tom Counter Gin, Sueno Azul Blanco and Barrel Aged agave spirits, Barrel Raider Irish Whiskey, and Elliott Bay Rum. Distillation uses a proprietary 66% corn / 20% malted barley / 14% rye mash bill, German stills, new American Oak barrel aging with a minimum 18-month seasoning, and small-batch production overseen by award-winning Head Distiller Ben Capdevielle.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: bottled spirits sales via the company-owned e-commerce storefront (shop.oldlogcabin.com) and on-site bottle shop, Washington-state retail and bar/restaurant wholesale distribution concentrated in the Puget Sound region, and on-premise consumption at the Seattle tasting room and three event spaces (Base Camp Room, Tasting Room, Distillery Room) supporting tastings, tours, cocktail classes, and private/corporate events. A 2024 Official Local Whiskey Partnership with the Seattle Kraken and Climate Pledge Arena adds a flagship on-premise channel within walking distance of the distillery. Marketing is anchored by an active Instagram presence (@oldlogcabin1840), email newsletter, and a distiller's blog emphasizing brand heritage and Pacific Northwest identity. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, headcount in the 11-50 range, and was re-acquired by a new group of Seattle-based entrepreneurs in 2022, who retained the COO and Head Distiller for operational continuity.
