We're joined this episode by Elizabeth McCall, master distiller of Woodford Reserve in Kentucky.
Elizabeth was not really a whiskey enthusiast when she first joined parent company Brown-Forman in 2009 as a member of the research and development department.
But she soon developed a taste for it, becoming a master taster in 2015, before being effectively anointed as successor to the legendary Chris Morris when she was appointed assistant master distiller in 2018.
When Elizabeth took the reigns in early 2023, she became only the third master distiller in Woodford Reserve’s 28-year history.
In this special episode of Drinks Adventures – produced in partnership with Woodford Reserve – we’ll hear about Elizabeth’s unique career pathway into whiskey, before getting in to the DNA of the Woodford Reserve brand.
Woodford Reserve is the only distillery that makes all four types of American whiskey – bourbon, rye, malt and wheat – under the same brand name.
We’ll explore those core range products, as well as the groundbreaking whiskies released as part of the Woodford Reserve Master’s Collection, in this brilliant conversation with Elizabeth.
