Season 8 Ep 9 -- Emma Crandall & Gabe RiCharde, Balcones Distilling

The first in a series of interviews held in Texas during an SCN launch features Jason sitting down with Emma Crandall & Gabe RiCharde of Balcones Distilling. The trio discuss distilling and blending practices, basically all things Balcones, but touch on the category and future of American Single Malt writ large.  This episode is paired quite well with an SCN release of Balcones -- a massively delicious single malt made exclusively from the legendary Golden Promise barley. Why not open your bottle and enjoy this episode with a generous pour? Don't have a bottle yet? Let's remedy that: https://bit.ly/3X9Q6QD ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour (of the aforementioned SCN Balcones), and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!
