St. George “Baller” California Single Malt Whiskey

“A California take on the Japanese spin on Scotch whisky” — so says master distiller Lance Winters of this unique and inspired spirit, which was created with Japanese-style whiskey highballs in mind (hence the name Baller).

Distilled from a mash of malted and lightly roasted American barley, in the same pot stills used for their brandy. The majority of its 3 to 4 year maturation is spent in ex-bourbon and French wine casks, before finishing in casks that held the distillery's own version of umeshu (a Japanese plum liqueur).
