Gavin Poole is the founder of Mersey Craft Spirits, the producer of Recipe No.6, Double Rye Whiskey. His family history is steeped in exploration, adventure, and entrepreneurship which all began in the 1800's with F.A. Poole, the patriarch of the Poole family. Gavin and his family members carry the spirit of F.A. Poole with them everyday. Listen as we discuss the success of his Double Rye, Poole family history, and what we can expect from Mersey Craft Spirits in the near future. A tremendous thank you to Dread River Distilling Company for allowing us to use their space for our discussion.
