Review: PB Chocolati

PB Chocolati is a chocolate and peanut butter flavored whiskey that was released November 2020.  It is produced and bottled in Spring Valley California by SARP LLC.  It is made with American Whiskey, dark chocolate, allergen free peanuts, and pure cane sugar.  It is currently available in the San Diego area or through several online retailers.  This is the only spirit they currently produce.  The success of another California flavored whiskey, Skrewball, has led dozens of others to produce their own peanut butter whiskey.  A handful of these companies have also added chocolate to their peanut butter flavored whiskey.

Review: Ballotin Original Chocolate Whiskey

Ballotin Original Chocolate Whiskey is one of four flavored whiskeys launched October 2015 by Saloon Spirits.  Ballotin is named for the stylish specialty box Belgian chocolatiers made to protect their fine chocolates.  The other flavors include Caramel Turtle, Bourbon Ball, and Chocolate Mint.  Saloon Spirits Founder Paul Tuell is a former Brand Manager for Brown Forman.  The light whiskey base is made from a traditional bourbon mash of  51% or more corn, with wheat and barley making up the balance.  The whiskey is aged for two years in used oak barrels.  This light whiskey base allows the taste of the natural flavors infused with the whiskey to shine through.  Bourbon must be aged in New American white oak barrels that have been charred.  The char and new oak from those bourbon barrels would have created a flavor barrier.  Natural flavor and caramel color are infused before bottling at 60 proof in Louisville Kentucky.
