Episode 2 - Far North Spirits
from Craft Spirited · host American Mash & Grain
In episode two of Craft Spirited, we're bringing you Far North Spirits, located in the northernmost reaches of Minnesota. A series of serendipitous events caused Mike Swanson to return home to reimagine his family's ancestral farm and turn it into a grain-to-glass distillery that draws from local Minnesotan agricultural traditions and Nordic sensibilities. In this conversation with Michael, you'll hear how he and his wife's previous careers inspired their marketing. Their research study on the impact of different rye varietals on aroma and flavor may change the way we think about whiskey. Cheers!
