That's the Spirit! with Matt Lessnau
Matt Lessnau is the man behind Adrift Distillers' beloved line of small-batch spirits. On this episode of Ramble by the River, he drops some serious booze knowledge and we get a peak behind the curtain at the hottest artisanal spirits producer on the coastal scene. Matt walks Jeff through a sampler tasting of a few of this year's popular spirits, and we find out why it is crucial to let gin sit awhile, like a fine beef stew.
The guys talk about the history of distilling alcohol, cannabis being weaponized to oppress people of color, The failure/success of the D.A.R.E campaign, and how to find the best wild mushrooms, and much more. He was an absolute pleasure to have in the studio and I learned a lot. I hope you enjoy!
