Ed Belfour has every honor a hockey player could dream of,
including a Stanley Cup, an Olympic gold medal, and the ultimate:
being named to the Hockey Hall of Fame. He could have chosen to
do anything in his retirement, but decided to make whiskey with
his family. Instead of just slapping the Belfour name on a bunch
of sourced casks, he and his son Dayn spent five years learning
the business from the grain up before bottling their first
whiskies. Those whiskies will make their debut later this month
in the Dallas area, where Belfour backstopped the Dallas Stars to
their only Stanley Cup in 1999. We'll find out why Ed Belfour
decided to get into the whiskey business the hard way on
WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, Diageo and its Scottish labor
unions will try one final time Monday to work out a new contract
before workers begin a series of rolling strikes on Tuesday. In
Kentucky, the Bourbon calendar will be even more crowded than
usual a year from now when the Kentucky Bourbon Affair moves to
September in a partnership with the promoters of Bourbon &
Beyond in Louisville - even though it could lead to conflicts
with the Kentucky Bourbon Festival. We'll also have details on
the week's new whiskies and on Behind the Label, we'll find out
how one distillery changed the flavor of its whisky by changing
the wood in its barrels.
