Pre-order – Charbay – Not an Event

January 1, 2025 @ 8:00 am

Title for The Whisky: The Whisky

It has been two and a half years since eight intrepid members from Scotch Club went on a quest to Ukiah, CA to meet the magnificent mad scientist Marko Karakasevic at Charbay distillery to select our 2nd release. After two days of drunken revelry studious sampling, the team scored up the tally sheets with a dead-even tie between a distilled Czech pilsner (similar to our 1st Release) and a stout whisky.  They were both too good to pass up, so we made the pilsner our 2022 release, but saved the stout for now.  It’s aged another two and a half turns ’round the sun since the team selected it, and that time has done it some good.

This release is named Number Five is Alive, due to the barrel being labeled 005 and having flavors that jumped out to get our attention.  Children of the ’80s may also recall a certain movie reference.  Although it is still a typical rocket fuel release at 149.6 proof, this is more of a mature gentleman than a young buck.  The distinct hoppiness from our pilsner is still there, but as a distilled stout, you’re sure to notice a difference from our previous releases… if you are wise enough to purchase one.

Pre-orders will be $10 for the first bottle and $5 thereafter.  Final purchases will be made at K&L Wines Merchants for $180.   Shipping now available outside CA.  

Notes per Andy Smith

Nose:  Sumptuous combination of leather and sugar.  A whisky drinker’s candy.

Palate:   Just like the nose, there is a sweet component that could be sugar with a hint of fruitiness, like a very ripe apple.  Hops?  You bet, but not overwhelming.  There is an antique leathery component that gives it a depth normally found in older bourbon.  None of this is subtle, however.  This a typical, 100% Charbay flavor bomb… until your tongue goes numb.

Finish: Vaporous, spicy, and chewy.  You may resemble a dog eating peanut butter.  Don’t exhale near an open flame…
