With roots in Ireland and Scotland, the early settlers arrived to the new world with the thirst for the spirits of their native countries. With barley in short supply, they began to utilize local corn and grains accessible to them, creating the first chapter in the fascinating story of American whiskey. From bourbon and rye to Prohibition-era moonshine, the industry of American whiskey has grown into a billion dollar industry worldwide. In this course, we'll study and taste the regional and distillery expression of some of the world's most famous whiskies, the innovators that made this possible, along with some stand out small production bottles that are paving the way for the future.
