100 Proof, Distilled Corn & Cane, Handcrafted in Hawaii

Inspired by the legacy of Oahu’s East Side during Prohibition, sugar-based moonshine quenched a generation’s thirst for some high quality alcohol.

Māhealani is the Hawaiian word for the fourth night of the full moon and is considered a fruitful day for fishing and planting, and we believe for distilling, too! Please enjoy our tribute to moonshine.

Mor Hemp Tusk Hemp Seed Flavored Vodka offers a unique and distinctive spirit infused with the essence of hemp seed. This vodka promises a one-of-a-kind tasting experience, allowing you to indulge in the extraordinary flavors it brings to your glass.

Maker Notes

CALI Whiskey is a unique California twist on a classic American sipping whiskey.   CALI is smoother than a frontier whiskey, but more complex and flavorful than a traditional Kentucky bourbon.   So pour a glass to sip while reading a good book or laughing with friends. Flavor is all about aroma and running a distillery is really about how to use raw high proof alcohol to pull the aromas and flavors out of cool stuff.  The flavors of CALI Whiskey arise organically from the interaction of the rich corn mash bourbon and spicy rye, mellowed by clean oak and then finished with our own signature blends of herbs, spices and botanicals. CALI starts with pure whiskey front notes and ends with subtle, complex, slightly sweet spice notes – just enough to have it finish with a delicious complexity.

Maker Notes

As you drive up the west slope of the Sierra Nevada mountains from our Etrog orchards in Lindcove Ranch California into the Sequoia National Forest you pass through the lovely town of Three Rivers California where three forks of the Kaweah River converge – the Middle or Main Fork, the North Fork and the South Fork. As the crystal clear waters flow down out of the mountains and into the farmland of the San Joaquin Valley they echo the three elements that we bring together to create whiskey:  wood, water and grain. Three Rivers is  our own expression of what we love in a rye whiskey.   Our rye starts with an almost pure rye mashbill (93% American Rye), but with an extra “handful” of malted barley to get a smoother fermentation and get away from the sour, bitter notes common to many rye whiskeys.   The extra barley adds just enough amylase to create a rich grain forward rye mash.    We then age in new American oak, and work our magic on purifying and smoothing out the whiskey base.  We then step Three Rivers through a series of toasted and smoked oak.    The toasted oak pulls bitterness from the spirit, and lends it sweet, light brown sugar and caramel notes.  Then the deep charred oak smooths off an “rough edges” and adds dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee and maple/spice notes to the finished whiskey. Every bottle of CALI Distillery Three Rivers Rye is bottled as a single barrel expression, so each is a little different,  but every bottle is delicious, and not quite like any other rye whiskey you’ve tasted.

Maker Notes

Rye Whiskey has deep roots in the story of American Whiskey.  When the colonists pushed out British Rum they didn’t give up drinking,  they just started making whiskey – Rye Whiskey.  Even George Washington had his own still at Mount Vernon, and made a Rye Whiskey for sale.  It was an unaged, unfiltered white lightning, but he double distilled it and sent it off to market. Early in his presidency, Washington imposed a tax on all whiskey made in the US.   The Rye Whiskey makers of western Pennsylvania objected to the tax and started the Whiskey Rebellion.   President Washington himself saddled up and led a Federal Militia into Pennsylvania to put down the insurrection.   Facing the Father of the Country backed by 12000 troops, the rebel farmers and distillers quietly dispersed. Not a shot was fired, and the rebellion came to an end.  The authority of the new national government was upheld, and Rye Whiskey – duly taxed – again flowed freely into pubs throughout country. Rye Whiskey remained popular until prohibition wiped out American Distilling.  Americans got used to the milder, simpler, lighter Canadian whiskey smuggled in during Prohibition.  After Repeal,  Rye Whiskey never reestablished itself.   Until now.  As the community has re-embraced bourbon and rich American Whiskeys over the past few years they have rediscovered Rye.  Rye is the fastest growing premium spirit in the world today.   Its complex flavors are easy to drink straight and add tremendous depth to cocktails.Riptide is CALI Distillery’s idea of a perfect small batch Rye Whiskey.   It is 93% rye with just enough malted barley to drive the fermentation process.  We are so enamored of this mash bill, that we do our best to bottle it as purely as it comes out of the single barrel.   Cask Strength, this 118 proof spirit has a beautiful amber color and an earthy overtone.  The rich butterscotch notes of oak complement the underlying spice of the Rye to make an incredibly smooth Rye Whiskey.

Maker Notes

The largest surf break off California is called Mavericks.  It was first conquered when a one-of-a-kind teenager paddled miles off shore to find the phantom giant waves of California.  Common wisdom was that California had no giant waves.   But when storm season hit,  one young man was certain that he could see giant waves breaking out on the horizon.   He grabbed his surfboard, and paddled, alone,  miles off shore, and proved that the monster waves were a reality.  He followed his vision, and discovered his dream. When Samuel Maverick, a Texas rancher, refused to brand his herd,  his cattle ran free on the range, independent, unclaimed and unbranded.   Those “Mavericks”  gave their name to a unique American archetype.   A Maverick is an independent individualist, a strong non-conformist who doesn’t follow the crowd.  When everyone else is branded with the mark of the herd, Mavericks stand alone.When we set out to create our own one-of-a-kind small batch finished whiskeys,  we just had to name them Mavericks.  Each expression is a unique California Original.  The Mavericks series is our chance share our vision of what whiskey can be.DoubleWood is our high rye bourbon shaped by exposure to two very different varieties of oak.  CALI Mavericks DoubleWood Whiskey starts out in charred new American Oak barrels, and finishes with toasted French Oak. Rich with coffee, caramel and cocoa aromas,  this is what Whiskey tastes like on the coast.

Thunder Whiskey is KC’s personal selection of the unique mesquite smoked taste distilled at Cali Distillery in Gardena, California.

Pineau des Charentes is a truly unique French aperitif, produced from a blend of fresh grape juice and young cognac, which is then aged in French oak barrels for several years. We let Doc Swinson’s blend of two five-year bourbon whiskeys rest in these barrels bringing hints of apricot, sultanas, and wildflower honey to the already delicious caramel and stone fruit notes of the bourbon.

Amatitena Reposado Tequila, crafted in Jalisco, Mexico, embodies tradition and expertise. Aged in oak barrels, it gains subtle complexity while retaining the essence of blue agave. Sip and savor the rich, mellow flavors that reflect the careful aging process, celebrating the true spirit of tequila craftsmanship.

Caravan shares the pedigree of Darioush’s Signature wines, but displays more ripe, saturated fruit with an elegantly textured finish. Caravan is anchored in Cabernet Sauvignon with lesser amounts of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and/or Malbec and Petit Verdot added for depth and complexity of flavor.

TASTING NOTES
Drawing inspiration from a refined Left-Bank Bordeaux blend, Caravan commands attention with a core of mouthwatering raspberry and black plum fruit while baking spices of cinnamon and nutmeg swirl on the palate.
Cabernet Sauvignon leads the way with its plush, velvety texture while Merlot and Cabernet Franc add savory top notes of bay leaf, hawthorn, and sandalwood. A flourish of rich, round fruits sweep across the midpalate, then culminate in an aromatic finish accentuated by dark chocolate reminiscent of a fine dusting of cocoa powder.
