Ever wondered how a collaboration between a distillery and a museum unfolds into a unique whiskey experience? Join us on this episode of Whiskey Bits with Matt and Phil, as we recount our entertaining trip to Journeyman Distillery in Michigan. You'll be intrigued by their partnership with the Field Museum in Chicago, which led to the creation of a delightful fig-flavored rye whiskey named "Field Rye." We share the story behind its intriguing 60% rye and 40% wheat mash bill, touching on everything from logo designs to the legendary T-Rex, Sue, sparking plenty of laughs along the way.
Curious about the magic behind fig-infused whiskey? Discover the fascinating process of using black mission figs in whiskey production, where figs are soaked in whiskey barrels to impart natural flavors. We'll take you through the unique aspects of Journeyman Distillery's sandstone building and the freshwater creek that supplies their water. Plus, we delve into the significance of using Midwest-sourced grains and what it means for the whiskey to be kosher. And you won't want to miss our amusing anecdote about a pickle company and the kosher certification process—it’s a real pickle of a story!
What happens when you mix whiskey and family stories? Our mixology session with Field Rye leads to a delicious Fig and Maple cocktail and a walk down memory lane, reminiscing about classic family games like Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit. The episode culminates with a surprising family revelation discovered through 23andMe, revealing hidden family history that adds an intriguing twist to our narrative. Tune in for an episode packed with humor, nostalgia, and fascinating whiskey insights that will keep you grinning from start to finish.
