Ep. 64: Borrowed Page Vol. 1 with American Mash & Grain

This week we turn to another new concept - blended whiskey overseen by a team of whiskey writers. Lifelong friends Devin Ershow and Chase Langdon have run American Mash & Grain for several years, but last year they decided to put their whiskey knowledge into practice. 

The result: Borrowed Page Volume One, a whiskey blending four distilleries: 

- Watershed Distillery in Ohio (WRP Episode 39)

- Wigle Whiskey in Pennsylvania (WRP Episode 18)

- Spirits of French Lick in Indiana (WRP Episode 5 and Episode 44)

- Whiskey Del Bac Distillery in Arizona (WRP Episode 63)

So, not only was I talking with the guys doing the blending, I had also talked to and tasted all four distilleries in the blend. That, to me, was an out-of-body experience. 

Devin and Chase are fascinating to listen to, and their process for choosing distilleries and partners was equally intriguing. There are close to a dozen distilleries mentioned in this episode, and I hope I've tagged them all - if I miss any, tag them in the comments on IG, FB, or Twitter! 

Borrowed Page Volume 1 is out now and available for purchase!
