Argonaut Fat Thumb Brandy pays homage to the California Gold Rush era, where miners used gold dust as currency. Merchants and barkeeps received payments in pinches of gold dust from miners’ purses. Those who received more generous pinches were known to have ‘Fat Thumbs,’ symbolizing their prosperity.

Our Master Distiller channels this spirit in crafting Argonaut Fat Thumb. She selects the finest alembic brandy stocks, showcasing the exceptional quality of our rarest blending components through meticulous blending.
