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!

This episode is a wonderful meeting of two different worlds. Jennifer Wren joins us at Caña Rum Bar to taste us through some of the whiskies offered by William Grant & Sons (Parent Company of Balvenie, Glenfiddich, etc.) that are finished in rum casks. She also brought a few special surprises that you won't hear about anywhere else, so follow her on Instagram (@thejenniferwren) and say thank you!
