Episode 8 Sip Shoot or Mix

This week’s episode gets back to spirits with Koenig Distillery. Head Distiller Andy Koenig comes on to talk about all things distilling including the unique process he uses to coax such amazing flavors out of fruits grown at and around his beautiful Caldwell distillery. We talk about his popular 7 Devils Whiskey line of bourbons, what makes their potato vodka so good, and we do a deep dive into his unique brandy program. Stay until the end for some breaking news from Koenig that is muy bueno. If you like liquor, you won’t want to miss this conversation. I also talk about a recent article in the Idaho Statesman about the struggle of local breweries and how I want to help.
