jpschust Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Argh, I'm racking my brain for the "domestic single malt" I had at Bouchon in CA- it was described as a scotch style whiskey, but produced in the united states. It was certainly a single malt. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparrott Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Most likely St. George, produced in California. Verrrrrry fruity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Riley Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Might have been Wasmund's: www.copperfox.biz Or it might have been McCarthy's, from Oregon: http://clearcreekdistillery.com/whiskey.html But Jake is right, it could have been the St. George: http://www.stgeorgespirits.com/ I have 'em all if you find which one you're looking for.

Waitman Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Why not ring Bouchon and ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Riley Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Oh, it could also have been Old Potrero, from Anchor Distilling: http://www.anchorbrewing.com/about_us/oldpotrero_18th.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpschust Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 it was St. George- the description nailed it for me and the picture I found of the bottle put the final nail in the coffin. Old Portrero is a favorite of mine in all its forms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ol_ironstomach Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 ...and it's Jake for the win! BTW, you could add Stranahan's to Joe's list too...a 2 year old barley malt whiskey from Colorado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edenman Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I had stranahan's for the first time on Saturday, it's quite good though it certainly needs a touch of water to kill off some of the heat. We do not suggest filling a glass with ice and then dousing it with Stranahan’s. That is, after all, what Vodka is made for. Ha! I tried this stuff before it was commercially available, circa 2005. I don't remember much except that I didn't like it, but these were my pre-whiskey days. And I was on a beer trip. How did I end up trying unreleased Stranahan's? Because the distillery happens to be attached to Flying Dog Brewing (which, in local news, is redirecting much of its brewing effort to the Frederick, MD facility). Denver's loss, our gain.
