Skrewball (n’)An individual who strays away from the cliché things in life. One who is not afraid to break away from the crowd and be their own individual. Throughout history, a skrewball has not always fit in within culture. They do not abide to all of societies tight and rigid standards. These individuals have a craving to be different. They strive for independence and are heavily concerned with creating their own path. It's an authentic road. One that makes them, them.
We see you out there, doing the unexpected, welcoming the unorthodox, and always sharing a laugh along the way. Some may say you’re a black sheep but we know you’re a Skrewball – and we’re here to cheer you on.
Our whiskey was born from a bestselling cocktail at our founders’ restaurant in Ocean Beach, CA. It was one of those drinks that people couldn’t stop talking about, embodying both smooth whiskey and creamy peanut butter flavors at the SAME TIME. Mind blown indeed. Skrewball’s unexpected mix of sweet & savory flavors is the perfect way to celebrate the weird and wonderful “skrewball” in all of us, ready to please even the most skeptical of your crew. So go on, give it a shot… or sip it neat, pour it on ice, or mix it up in a cocktail (like our peanut butter old-fashioned).
Why create peanut butter whiskey? It’s pretty simple, actually. Peanut butter was a totally new and fascinating flavor for our co-founder Steve after immigrating as a refugee from Cambodia. He went on to develop a best-selling peanut butter whiskey cocktail at his bar and restaurant a place as known for its foodie-friendly fare as it was for being a haven for local misfits, characters, and black sheep. He then teamed up with Brittany, his wife who just so happened to be a lawyer & chemist, to develop a standalone spirit that tasted great on its own and played well in a cocktail.
The result is Skrewball: our unconventional ode to different backgrounds, exotic flavors, and the seemingly disparate qualities that make us all unique and united. Here’s to the Skrewballs!
