Super Smoked Malt | Tasting with Compass Box's Stephen Coronna
In this episode, Stephen Coronna of Compass Box joins us to discuss his journey into the world of tea and whiskey. We dive into the importance of avoiding snobbery and gatekeeping when exploring new beverages, and instead embracing an open and unpretentious approach. Stephen shares his early experiences with loose leaf tea at Teavana, which sparked his passion despite the hefty prices. We also explore the fascinating concepts of qi "chi" and flavor wheels in tasting notes, emphasizing the subjective nature of perceiving flavors and aromas. Stephen provides insightful tips on how to verbalize tasting experiences without feeling intimidated, encouraging listeners to describe sensations and memories evoked by the beverages.
Additionally, we sample the unique Super Smoked 2023
American Single Malt from Andalusia Distilleries, which showcases the distinct flavors imparted by smoking with various barbecue woods. Throughout the conversation, Stephen's enthusiasm for quality and his commitment to building an inclusive community around tea and whiskey shine through.
So, join us for an engaging discussion that celebrates the
joy of exploring new flavors and the power of shared experiences.
