We didn’t realize that we were going into the spirits business. We just thought that we were sharing a delicious home made drink with friends. Our founder, Taste Master, and resident foodie – took a handful of holiday Etrogs (a rare heirloom citrus fruit grown in southern italy, north africa, spain, israel and one secret orchard in north america) and decided to make a liqueur for fun. The result was fantastic. Sweet, clear, fruity, floral and powerful. We poured it for dinner guests, and they were hooked too. The next year we made a few bottles and brought them to holiday celebrations. Soon we had friends and neighbors asking if we could make them a bottle too. When a local store owner told us that he would buy, and sell, every bottle we could make, we realized that we might have something special.By the time we caught our breath, we had an operating distilled spirits plant, pallets of liqueur, gold medals, industry recognition, and the best fruit liqueur on the market. We soon followed with our second recipe - Besamim - an incredible aromatic spice liqueur. Together they've received numerous gold medals and been named by Wine Enthusiast to their list of the 100 top spirits in the world.In 2017, we released our first whiskey CALI. CALI is a unique California Twist on American Sipping Whiskey. Another multi gold medal winning spirit, CALI is a true embodiment of what a California Whiskey should be. In May of 2018 we released Riptide our Cask Strength Rye Whiskey, and in the spring of 2019 we released Mavericks Doublewood, a mellow rich bourbon aged in New American Oak and finished with toasted French Oak. Amazing stuff if you can find a bottle.
