    Honkaku Spirits - Christopher Pellegrini

    This episode features Christopher Pellegrini of Honkaku Spirits.

    The word Honkaku means authentic in Japanese. Honkaku Spirits is an import company that brings traditional spirits from Japan that are much older than Japanese whiskey. We are focusing Shochu and Awamori in our discussion. Shochu is a spirit made from 53 approved ingredients. Like many, Christopher started out in craft brewing. Fast forward 22 years where he lives in Tokyo. He discovered the traditional spirit upon his arrival and has built relationships and is sharing Japan's wonderful secrets with the world.

    Goodlands Food Co. - Anna Dausman

    Goodlands Food Co. - Anna Dausman

    This episode features Anna Dausman of Goodlands Food Co.

    Goodlands Food Co. is a Philly based hot sauce company that was a pandemic hobby that turned into something bigger. Anna had a community garden with a plot that she started growing ghost peppers. The amusing part is that the garden is in a cemetery so ghost peppers are quite befitting. Anna's friends and family kept asking her when she would be selling her incredible hot sauces. As Anna points out, "Goodlands creates colorful seasonal inspired hot sauces for people who love flavor." These are hot sauces that will make your food taste even better.

    Hercules Mulligan - Steve Luttmann

    Hercules Mulligan - Steve Luttmann

    This episode features Steve Luttmann of Hercules Mulligan.

    In 2015 Steve, who is a history buff, was reading Ron Chernow's " Alexander Hamilton". He came across this character by the name of Hercules Mulligan. This lead him to an out of print biography about Hercules Mulligan. This is where the inspiration to make the libation came about. This spirit is a nod to one of George Washington's spies during the revolution. They are interpretations of what may have been served in his Manhattan tailor shop. Launched on November 25, 2019, it's a fascination story complimented by exceptional concoctions.

Mount Vernon distillery

I stumbled upon this podcast being a huge fan of the Mount Vernon Distillery. I was very thoroughly entertained with the questions asked by the host. I’m not even that much of a spirits enthusiast but this episode really stood apart with its history lessons as well. Looking forward to listening to some more episodes.

Bsalk ,

Just fun!

More of a wine drinker, then a sprits enthusiast. Enjoying the human stories behind the businesses. Rich can be a little campy, but he is a lot of fun to hang out with.

Boozedancing ,

A Good Old-Fashioned and Boozy Time was had by all!

Rich Baby! Thanks so much for having us on your podcast. You are a SUPERB and gracious host (i.e. you put up with our nonsense and didn't kick us off the air!), and we had a glorious time! Hope to do this again real soon. Cheers! - G=LO
