Working as a Brown-Forman Whiskey Blender

I sit down with Brendan who worked as brewer for Driftwood Brewery in BC for five years, before moving to Scotland to work as a whisky blender for Brown-Forman. We discuss his journey from brewing to distilling and blending, and his role at Brown-Forman working under Master Blender Rachel Barrie. He worked as her assistant to blend whiskies and develop new recipes for the Benriach, Glenglassaugh, and Glendronach Distilleries. He gives us the dirt on what it’s really like working at a global company to produce spirits. So pull up a chair, grab a dram, and listen to Brendan’s story.
