Show Notes

On the latest episode of the Park Street Insider Podcast, Andres Correa sits down with Dave Smith, Head Distiller at St. George Spirits to break down his distillery's whiskey-making approach. 

Recorded just before the TTB issued its official definition of American Single Malt Whiskey, this episode traces the history of this category from the perspective of one of its earliest adopters: St. George Spirits. Smith offers his interpretation of what American Single malt should be and how St. George approaches this still developing segment.  He'll also get into where he sees the American single malt category heading in the coming years.

Smith will get technical about the production methods his brand uses to create its products, their approach to responsible ingredient sourcing, and his insider tips for a great tasting. 

Our conversation with Dave Smith was recorded live at this year's ACSA Convention in New Orleans.
