Making the "World's Most Admired" Whiskies

Louisville’s Michter’s Distillery took top honors in the 2023
Drinks International survey to find the “world’s most admired”
whiskey brand. Andrea Wilson is the Master of Maturation for
Michter’s, as well as the company’s chief operating officer, and
has the final say on any whisky that carries the Michter’s name.
We’ll talk with Andrea about the pressure of living up to that
reputation, as well as her Hall of Fame whisky-making career, on
this week’s WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, Kentucky lawmakers
have approved a bill to close loopholes in the state’s Vintage
Distilled Spirits Law. We’ll have the details on that and the
rest of the week’s whisky news, including a rare collaboration
between Australia’s Starward Whisky and Lagavulin.
