Neatly on the Rocks Page Gerrick

One thing whiskey drinkers (like Page) always want to know is "how do I learn how to put words to what I'm tasting?" This week join us as Lisa, with her amazing palate, walks Page through Sensory Bootcamp. 

Whiskey cocktails are delightful, but making them at home can daunt even the most experienced whiskey drinker. This week Lisa and Page chat with Heather Wibbels, who both demystifies cocktails for beginners, and offers new approaches to experts, in her new book/love letter to cocktails, Bourbon is my Comfort Food.
