This week on the Cocktail Academy Podcast, Damian is joined by none other than Jillian Vose — bartender, creator, and the brains behind Outwalker Irish Whiskey. From scooping ice cream in Cape Cod to shaking cocktails in New York’s most iconic bars, Jillian shares the journey that led her from high-volume service to high-level spirits innovation.
They dive into her early hospitality days in Arizona, her time at legendary venues like Maison Premiere, Clover Club, Death & Co., and The Dead Rabbit, and how she honed her craft through fine dining, education, and creative collaboration. Jillian also opens up about the development process behind Outwalker — from cask choices to proof levels — and what it really takes to create a whiskey blend with intention and identity.
Whether you're a bar manager, a cocktail nerd, or just love a good story over a good drink, this episode is packed with insight, laughs, and a few f-bombs (all lovingly delivered).
