Show Notes
Join us for a deep dive into the world of whiskey with Matt Klette, Head of Advocacy at Proximo Spirits, as we do a 101 introducory class on their whiskey portfolio. On the show, he walks us through the distinct stories and production methods behind Great Jones Distilling Co., Tin Cup, Stranahan's, Pendleton Whiskey, and the legendary Bushmills. He makes a compelling case for why American single malts and Irish whiskeys deserve a bigger role in tropical and classic cocktails, challenging assumptions about where these spirits belong. From unique barrel finishes to aging techniques, Matt breaks down what gives each whiskey its signature character and how to best showcase them in mixed drinks. The conversation also touches on the exciting rise of single malts beyond Scotland, with American distilleries carving out their own bold identity. Tune in for a spirited and educational journey through some of the most versatile whiskeys on the shelf today.
