This episode of Delicious City is fueled by whiskey with notes of crabs, canine and corpses… sounds wild, we know, and the stories behind each of those whiskeys are just as intoxicating as the spirits themselves. Steven Grasse is today's guest, and his agency Quaker City Mercantile has created brands like Hendrick's Gin and Sailor Jerry. Now, there's a few new beverages in the works, which we get to taste in the studio - and he brought some extra for you, DC fam, to potentially win!
