One of the best parts of my job is spending time with people who are experts in their field and passionate about what they do. Passion and expertise are compelling to be around. So when @curi0usjenn invited me to spend the day at Hiram Walker with her as the guest of master blender Dr Don Livermore @cdnwhiskydoc I headed to Windsor, Canada.
 
Dr. Don is the mind behind @jpwisers @lot40 @pikecreek_whisky and many others. He oversees a massive operation encompassing many brands, and is still very thoughtful about the interaction of flavors between grain and yeast and wood in the whisky he blends. He spent the day with us showing us labs, taking us on a tour of grain silos and warehouses, and leading a blending seminar unlike any I’d done before.
 
Canadian whisky is an underappreciated category in the USA, and Dr Don is on a mission to change that for all the uisgephiles out there.
 
 Thank you Dr Don, Jenn, and the rest of the wonderful Canadian whiskyfolk who shared their knowledge with me:
