Cedar Ridge: Murphy Quint

This week on the Bourbon Showdown Podcast, I’m joined by Murphy Quint , Master Blender & Director of Operations at Cedar Ridge Distillery to talk about the tastiest whiskey coming out of Iowa! Murphy’s been in the game since before “craft” was king, and he walks me through Cedar Ridge’s journey—from proving great whiskey could come from outside Kentucky and Tennessee to becoming the number one whiskey in their home state. We talk about staying true to the core expressions while still dropping banger after banger, and then we do what we always do on this show when we’re hanging with good people talking good whiskey… we drink it. We’re cracking into The QuintEssential Special Release No. 5 and their Amontillado Sherry Finished Bourbon—two absolutely beautiful pours—plus some stories and all-star moments from Murphy’s whiskey past. Damn good conversation, damn good whiskey on this weeks Bourbon Showdown Podcast!
