This week on DemiTastes on Wednesday, January 3rd, 2024, at 6pm CST, we’ll be speaking with Murphy Quint of Cedar Ridge Distillery, Iowa, about their QuintEssential (yes, named for the Quint family) American Single Malt Whiskey line, as well as touching a bit on the rest of their portfolio. We’ll find out what makes this distillery unique among other distilleries in the Midwest and what makes Cedar Ridge’s American Single Malt Whiskey so special. They’re certainly doing a few interesting things in Iowa. Tune in to find out more!
I started reviewing whiskey in 2020 by seeking out the kinds of things my friends might want to try, and quickly moved to seeking the unique and interesting. These days I focus most of my energy on American Single Malt Whiskey, including creating the subreddit /r/AmericanSMW. I enjoy Single Malts from around the world, as well as a little of everything else, including Bourbon, Brandy, Rum, and Mezcal. I’ve been using names starting with “Demi” since forever, so when I noticed my habit of pouring what seemed to be the smallest drams around the web, and the obvious pun with the small espresso cup called a demitasse, I decided that the name “DemiTastes” only made sense. (I’m DemiReticent on Reddit.)
