Hi Whiskey Ringers, it is episode 7! Thank you so much for listening and please share with your friends, family, and fellow whiskey lovers.
On this episode, I’ve got Paul Coughlin, founder of Taconic Distillery in New York’s Hudson Valley. New York whiskey - bourbon, rye, single malts - is fascinating and deeply personal to me. I love talking to friends and distillers throughout New York about different styles, the history of distilling in New York, and what makes New York unique in the distilling landscape. Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is Empire Rye, a non-legal set of standards for New York rye, but that’ll be talked about on a future episode.
Taconic is probably my favorite New York-based distillery. There might be a product here and there from another place that I like more, but I don’t think another New York distillery has the consistency of product that Taconic has. There’s also no other distillery in New York from which I enjoy nearly every product they make. Are you a New York distillery listening to this and thinking “hey, we’ve got some great stuff, have you tried us?” I’ll be honest, the answer is probably no. And that’s on me, but hey, we’re only on episode 7! If you do want me to try your products, just shoot me an email: David@whiskeyinmyweddingring.com, or reach out to me on Facebook, instagram, or through the website.
Lastly, this will be a slightly shorter episode - I promise, I’ll be visiting Taconic in person to talk to the full team and get more info out of Brandon and Paul hopefully over the summer.
