Episode 175
Saturday, 28 March, 2026
Well we are headed back to Cali and this time were on the farm. From sweet potatoes to almonds Corbin Cash does it all. We talk to David, and lets just say epic. I sip on a hazmat single barrel Merced Rye and let the man tell the history and science behind running a farm that just happens to have a distillery. Enjoy.Corbincash.comBadmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Patreon.com/offtopicwhiskeyFAMILY COMES FIRST.OUR SPIRITS ARE A CLOSE SECOND.For over 100 years, we’ve been lucky to have farmland in California’s beautiful San Joaquin Valley, where rich soil and endless sunshine create the perfect conditions for raising the best sweet potatoes. When David John Souza took the reigns of the family business, he set out to discover new ways people could enjoy this delicious food. A love of good times, plus a dose of entrepreneurship, led him to create an ultra-premium spirits company called Corbin Cash, named after his son Corbin Cash Souza.Merced Rye WhiskeyCorbin Cash Merced Rye Whiskey is made from an ultra-rare, 100-percent California native Merced Rye mashbill. The whiskey ages in our custom-charred American white oak barrels for up to 6 years. With its bold, robust bite, this rye whiskey is full of character.“California Gold Rush”2 oz.

Fresh, strained lemon juice2 dashes of orange bittersCombine whiskey, honey simple syrup, lemon juice and orange bitters in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously until chilled and strain over ice into a chilled double old-fashioned glass.5 GENERATIONS SINCE 1917Since 1917, the Souza family has grown sweet potatoes and Merced rye on our California farm. For generations, new ideas and risk-taking have been cornerstones for us as American farmers, and for us, starting a distillery was the next step in our legacy.SWEET POTATO SPIRITS & RYE WHISKEYOur crop rotation is specially designed to be ideal for both farming and distilling all our sweet potato spirits and rye whiskey. Sweet potatoes thrive in our sandy soil and Central California’s arid climate and Merced rye is planted as a drought-tolerant cover crop throughout the fall and winter.
