Skrewball is a unique and widely popular brand of American whiskey known for its distinctive peanut butter flavor. The brand was founded by a husband and wife duo, Steven Yeng, a Cambodian refugee, and his wife Brittany, a chemist, in Ocean Beach, California. Their journey began when Steven, a bar owner, created a popular peanut butter whiskey shot for his patrons. Recognizing its potential, his wife used her chemistry background to transform the cocktail into a bottled spirit.

The brand's identity is built on its unexpected and unconventional flavor profile, celebrating the "skrewball" in everyone. The whiskey is a harmonious blend of sweet and savory notes, with a rich, creamy peanut butter flavor that is balanced by a hint of whiskey's characteristic warmth. The spirit's alcohol content is 35% by volume, which classifies it more as a whiskey liqueur than a traditional whiskey.

Skrewball has gained a significant following for its versatility. It is enjoyed on its own as a shot, poured over ice, or used as a key ingredient in a wide range of cocktails. The brand’s success is a testament to its innovative approach, creating a product that appeals to both whiskey enthusiasts and those who are new to the spirits category. In 2023, the brand was acquired by Pernod Ricard, a global leader in the spirits and wine industry.
