Welcome to CALI.
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.

We didn’t realize that we were going into the liquor business. We just thought that we were sharing a delicious home made drink with friends. Our founder – Taste Mistress, and resident foodie – started making homemade liqueurs in our kitchen. The result was fantastic. Sweet, clear, fruity, floral and powerful. We poured it for dinner guests and they were hooked too. Soon a few bottles grew to dozens of bottles and we had local stores asking to carry our liqueurs.
By the time we caught our breath, we had an operating distilled spirits plant, pallets of liquor, gold medals, industry recognition, and two of the best liqueurs on the market. But our taste mistress is a whiskey girl at heart, and we started dreaming about a whiskey we could call our own. It took us a few years and the sipping whiskey that emerged is something unique and incredible. CALI – A full-bodied whiskey with whispers of wonderful aromatic spices and botanicals.
