In this bottle is our interpretation of the essence of California, and its diverse people, who each bring something unique to this land. Our tribute to this melting pot starts with two of our California made single malts – the double gold winning STR and the gold medal winning Distiller’s Cut. We combine these with two amazing pot-still distilled light whiskies that we sourced from the old Seagram’s plant in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Light whiskies are distilled to a higher proof, creat...ing a more delicate spirit and a canvas to paint on by blending in fuller flavored single malts. This creates a unique whisky with a refreshing taste, perfect for an aperitif before dinner (Highball anyone?) or even an accompaniment to a meal.

TASTING NOTES

  Nose: Pleasant and immediately approachable, greeted with the familiar flavors from American oak cask, stewed stone fruits, vanilla custard, coconut cream, but also uniquely 10th Street, modeling clay, sea air, salinity, cocoa puffs, red pu-ehr tea, the first rain on dry concrete. 

    Color: Lightly oaked Chardonnay 

    Palate: Easy to drink, panacotta, light campfire embers, dandelions, and heathered honey.

    Finish:
Leaves you wanting more with glazed donuts, lime altoid sours, and lingering silky mouthfeel.

CLASSIC TRADITION MEETS
AMERICAN INGENUITY

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US

We’re engineers. Incorrigibly so. We believe things can always be made better. In fact, we’ve never seen anything that we didn’t want to improve. With some racking of brains, some midnight oil, and a ton of elbow grease. The status quo is unacceptable to us.

We learned the old ways of making Single Malts from the masters. We saw the traditional ways of making whiskey in America. And we saw no reason to be constrained by either. Our whiskies are a product of precision. Of meticulous attention to detail. But they are also a product of adventure. Of willingness to erase boundaries. And break new ground.
