Kachka & New Orleans' famed sandwich shop Turkey & The Wolf present “The Summer of Sandwich”
Kachka Spirits is throwing an outdoor sandwich-centric party to celebrate the release of their Caraway Rye Toast Vodka collaboration with some of Portland’s favorite sandwich makers
Kachka, Portland’s own famed Russian restaurant, bar and distillery, is welcoming New Orleans' famed sandwich shop Turkey and the Wolf for “The Summer of Sandwich” parking lot party. On June 14th, Kachka Fabrika, the new distillery location next to Rosenstadt Brewery (formerly Culmination Brewing) will welcome special guest Mason Hereford from New Orleans' famed sandwich shop, Turkey and the Wolf.
Kachka’s Executive Chef/Co-Owner Bonnie Morales crossed paths with Hereford participating in food festivals over the years, and since inviting him to Portland for a mash up dinner at Kachka for the restaurant’s INTERWOVEN dinner series in 2019, the Kachka team has been looking for a way to collaborate ever since. The opening of Kachka’s own distillery last year and expanded bottled infusions program sparked the idea of making a vodka together, resulting in Caraway Rye Toast Vodka, to be released on June 14th.

Kachka Fabrika
About Kachka Fabrika Distillery & Zakuski Bar
Since opening Kachka in 2014, the restaurant has been on a mission to showcase the beauty and breadth of post-Soviet food and drink—especially vodka. Over the years, the house infusions became a signature of the restaurant, sparking curiosity and conversations at the table. But behind the scenes, Co-Owners Bonnie and Israel Morales always dreamed of something bigger: bringing distillation in-house. Fabrika is the realization of that dream. Inside Kachka Spirits’ own distillery (Est. 2025), they’ve taken years of tasting, serving, and educating on vodka and channeled them into spirits that are entirely their own. From beloved Kachka Horseradish Vodka to seasonal infusions, like Hood Strawberry, Kramambulya, Rhubarb, as well as a premium Classic Wheat Vodka—developed through careful trial and error in the Russian tradition and distilled with Portland’s pure water—every bottle reflects the craft and care that define Kachka. The adjacent cocktail bar was created as a place to celebrate it all: martinis made with house vodka, a seafood-forward zakuski menu, and the beauty of gathering together. It’s also located next door to our dumpling workshop, so there are pelmeni and vareniki on the menu there too. Fabrika Distillery & Zakuski Bar is open Thursday-Monday, 4pm-close, with $1oyster happy hour daily from 4-6pm, and late night happy hour on Fridays and Saturdays from 9pm to close.
