For over seven years, the biggest spirit brands in the world have been coming into our bars to teach whiskey, rum, tequila and mezcal enthusiasts about the drinks that they love. Now, we’re happy to bring that same level of knowledge and fun to you online as a podcast! Every Tuesday and Friday, Pedro Shanahan will be joined in front of a live audience by the people who know these alcohol brands the best, the ones who make it!

David Matthews began his 2nd career in the South of France as a Hazelnut Farmer (his first career was Investment Banking, but we don't have to get into that.) Today, as the Head Distiller of Woody Creek, he lives in Basalt, Colorado making the spirits we're talk about today! He joins Pedro in the Whiskey Society to chat about their line.

From the Woody Creek Website:
When we founded Woody Creek Distillers, we knew we wanted to make nothing but the finest craft spirits, each with a unique taste and character that was true to the origins of that spirit.
It’s a standard we hold ourselves to every day. It's why we grow and harvest some of our ingredients ourselves, like the potatoes for our premium vodka. It's why we only source our grains from trusted Colorado farms, like the rye in our 100% rye mash whiskey
We distill every spirit we make in our own custom Carl stills. We never use neutral grain spirits, or blend with base spirits from other distillers. So you can rest assured that every bottle produced by Woody Creek Distillers will be truly handcrafted to the highest standards.
Where we make it is as important as how we make it.
We know that growing and sourcing our produce locally, not only makes for the best ingredients, it’s also good for the environment. We are dedicated to protecting and enhancing the natural resources of Woody Creek. Our distillery is a low-emissions facility, using the most efficient distillation technology available. The waste from our raw products goes back to the Scanlan family farm in Woody Creek as compost, or to local ranches as livestock feed.
