California based pioneer craft distillery St. George Spirits is known to whiskey lovers primarily for its yearly American single malt release. It also has a rather fascinating Japanese influenced expression known as Baller that has been a sleeper hit for them. The whiskey has been virtually impossible to get hold of outside of its home state, which is something that’s now being addressed with a slightly wider release plan.

Originally available only in California, the distillery has said it will increase distribution for it in small amounts starting this spring to Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Texas, and Washington. No price was immediately given.
Tasting profile wise, Baller is said to be “crisp and dry, with a touch of malt sweetness and a lingering smoky finish.” We reviewed it when it first came out a few years back, with our reviewer at the time noting this is exactly the kind of whiskey that keeps one in love with the category.
