Text us your wine questions, craziest wine experiences, or if you just have a comment for us. . This week's podcast features a chat with Dr. Don Livermore. Though you are unlikely to know who he is, it is entirely likely that you have had products that he has overseen in his nearly 30 years at the Hiram-Walker distillery and the brand in question today - J.P. Wiser's, which is Canada's longest running brand of whisky. Wiser's is older than Canada, if that gives you some indication Dr. Don is, on paper, a Master Blender, but in reality, he's a virtuoso performer in that roll. He is the first Canadian to win Master Blender of the Year in the world at the World Whisky Awards. He developed the Canadian Whisky Flavour Wheel, a comprehensive and must-have resource for anyone interested in learning more about flavours in Canadian whisky.  More than anything though, he is an amazing ambassador for Canadian whisky and is willing to take time to talk about the history, the chemistry, and art of making whisky. I really hope to have him on the podcast again in the future to learn more about the history of whisky in Canada.  So here it I, my conversation with Dr. Don Livermore from JP Wiser's.

Plus, this podcast will give you the secret of how to make one of the best Manhattan's on the planet!--What we drank:JP Wisers 15JP Wisers 18JP Wisers Triple Barrel RyeJP Wisers Seasoned Oak--From the JP Wiser's Website:In 1857, before Canada was even Canada, J.P. Wiser was distilling and barrelling whisky in Prescott, Ontario. By the early 1900's, J.P. Wiser was selling whisky all over the world, growing to become Canada's third largest distiller. His choice to age his whisky longer than others at the time led to both its quality and its popularity. Today, we care about quality as much as our founder, from grain to glass, and we're proud to carry the legacy of J.P. Wiser's forward.Our Master Blender Dr. Don Livermore got his start as a microbiologist at the historic Hiram Walker & Sons Ltd. distillery before attaining his Ph.D. in Brewing and Distilling and assuming his current role in early 2012. Don's commitment to quality, care, and craftsmanship can be tasted in every bottle of J.P. Wiser's whisky today. He's the central nervous system of our operation and he's constantly checking in on every step of our process to ensure that the whisky that goes in our bottles is worthy of carrying the J.P. Wiser's name.~jpwisers.com--Follow us:spiritguidesocietypodcast.comfacebook.com/spiritguidesoctwitter.com/spiritguidesocinstagram.com/spiritguidesochttps://www.youtube.com/c/SpiritGuideSociety--Music by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
