Friday 12/5 at 5pm CST, we’re joined by Jace Marti, Master Distiller of Black Frost Distilling.

On Black Friday, Black Frost released their brand new American Single Malt Whiskey, which, like all their whiskeys, is made from all-Minnesota ingredients, including grains from the family farm, Minnesota-grown oak, and wild fermentation, for a true sense of place and northern terroir. Tonight we’re deep diving on this 3-year old distillery and their new ASMW, with a stop along the way to talk about their prior releases of a Bourbon and a Rye. Phill and Doug got the bottle of Black Frost ASMW a little early to share around at Thanksgiving. We and are families and friends were impressed and itching to learn more.

And of course we have to ask: how does whiskey aging work in Minnesota, the frozen north?

Tonight’s whiskeys:

• Black Frost Distilling Wheated Blended Bourbon Whiskey*
• Black Frost Distilling Blended Rye Malt Whiskey*
• Black Frost Distilling American Single Malt Whiskey*
