Everett, WA. James Bay Distillers announced today the upcoming release of their first quarterly members-only Flightline Whiskey & Spirits Club cask-strength whiskey. The company, a craft distillery located just north of Seattle at Paine Field International Airport, stated that the release is a 125.2 proof cask-strength version of their award-winning Everett Liquor Co. bourbon.
"We love the color, the aroma, and the taste is amazing," said Ernest Troth, president of James Bay Distillers. "Our 80 proof expression, the Everett Liquor Co. with its 1902 pre-Prohibition label, has been named 'a damn fine bourbon' and has earned a 94-point gold medal and 'Best in Class' award at competitions in Texas and California. The heightened complexity of the cask-strength brings a true sipping whiskey to our offerings. And yes, we chose the name 'Flightline' for the club because we are just a few hundred feet from Paine Field's 34R runway and a quarter mile from the main commercial runway serving Alaska and Frontier airlines."
The company will notify members directly when bottles are labeled and ready for pick-up. Details of the club benefits are available through their official communication channels. The three club levels offer steep discounts on bottle purchases, branded members-only glassware, and three tastings per quarter for a member and a guest.
