This week, we continue our conversation about the exciting world of rice whiskey with return guest Nick! We move from Japan to one of the other oldest producers of rice spirits - China. We also talk about how these ancient traditions of rice spirits are fusing with modern whiskey production, especially in the booming world of craft spirits! Come join us for all of this and much more!
