Categories:
A podcast for lovers of wine, beer, liquor (incl. whisky, whiskey, bourbon, gin, vodka, tequila etc) and cocktails, Drinks Adventures hosts wine makers, brewing and distilling experts, sommeliers, bartenders & more.Whisky distillery Joadja draws upon the Spanish backgrounds of its founders, Valero and Elisa Jimenez, maturing its spirit exclusively in ex-sherry wine casks.Their whisky distillery is unique in many respects, not least its location among the ruins of a fairly isolated heritage-listed 1870s mining town in the NSW Southern Highlands.First up in this episode, you'll hear from Valero how it was that he and Elisa found themselves purchasing the 1000-acre property in 2011, and ultimately running a paddock-to-bottle whisky operation on the site.As is the case for many Australian whisky start-ups over recent decades – Joadja Distillery may not have gotten off the ground were it not for the encouragement of industry legend, Bill Lark.You may also like:Wine episodes on Drinks Adventures Learn more about your ad choices.
