Ever wondered about the untold tales behind your favorite spirits? Join us as we toast to the unexpected with our guests, Ryan and Gina, at the lively Whiskey in the Winter event held at the bustling Detroit Shipping Company. Amidst the warm, aromatic swirls of whiskey, we indulge not just in classic tastes but also in adventurous cocktails, all complemented by delectable dishes from local gems like Bangkok 96 and Dudley's Dumplings. The night takes a nostalgic turn as we encounter Herodura tequila, sparking memories of our bartending days and adding a twist to our whiskey-laden evening. It's not just about the drinks; it's the camaraderie, the shared laughter, and the stories that flow as smoothly as the spirits.
As the glasses clink, Ryan takes us on a spirited journey through his fascinating career in the industry, from his beginnings in Old Park to his prominent role with Brown-Forman. Discover how managing DJs in Detroit shaped his path, and delve into the world of notable brands like Jack Daniels and Woodford Reserve. We also give a nod to Heredura's pioneering role in the tequila world, especially its creation of the Reposado category. The episode wraps up with an engaging tequila tasting, featuring the Helladora Legend, promising insights into its unique, additive-free qualities. With insights from our vibrant host Jamie Flanagan and contributions from Matt Fox, August Gitchlag, and Bob, this episode isn't just a tasting—it's a spirited adventure through flavors, stories, and the connections that bring us together. Cheers to new experiences!
