In this Episode, Michael talks with the head distiller from 1857 Distillery about the process of making alcohol, why is potato vodka has depth and character while most commercial vodkas do not, what it takes to operate a distillery and create alcohol, and more. So much of the mixology conversation is dominated by the art of creating a drink, it becomes easy to ignore the painstaking process of creating the booze in the first place. Michael and Elias demystify the process in an engaging and educational conversation.
