The distillery that made it? Closed forever. The new oak barrel they matured this whiskey in is so unusual that people guess it's sherry-finished when it's not. Here's the story of how we rescued 200 bottles from extinction.
This California gem used toasted (not charred) new oak, creating extraordinary wood spice that mimics rich, intense sherry maturation without a single sherry barrel in sight. From a beautiful distillery that couldn't survive the pandemic, these bottles preserve their legacy forever.
