Episode 267: June 27, 2010
Dave Pickerell has been keeping a low profile since leaving Maker’s Mark in April of 2008. Turns out he was doing research into rye and microdistilling, and discovered a 10-year-old rye that just begged to be bottled. Dave and his partners are now selling WhistlePig Rye Whiskey, with plans to build a distillery on a farm in Vermont’s Green Mountains. Dave explains his new whiskey and his research in this week’s episode. In the news, George Washington’s Rye goes on sale this week, results from the Bonhams auction in New York, and more new whiskies.
