We interview Master Distiller
Lance winters of St. George Spirits in Alameda, CA. He's a pioneer
in the industry and a champion of craft distilling.
Some of the things we cover in
this wide-ranging conversation include:
How
Lance’s childhood fascination with flavors, spices, and seasonings
eventually led him into the beer and whiskey world, where he met
Jorg Rupf, the legendary founder of St. George Spirits.
Why
flavor is an ideal medium to use when you want to transfer some
sort of emotion or experience between completely different
people.
What
it took to grow St. George from a brand that started making
Alsatian-inspired fruit brandies in a shipping containers to one of
the undisputed leaders in the craft spirits world
Then
we taste the following St. George Spirits and give you in-depth
notes: Their pear brandy, Terroir Gin, Bruto Americano Aperitivo,
and their single malt whiskey.
