As I see it, whisky is taking us on a journey. Whenever I pour myself a dram, it takes me on an adventure about tasting, about the production process (fermentation, distillation, maturation), and about visits of distilleries around the globe... Whisky truly is a thing of pleasure, and it is for everyone!
Passionate about spirits, wine and beer, I dedicate myself to demystifying whisky for the general public. I am promoter of the sole whisky festival in Québec, Rendez-vous Scotch Whisky de Québec. I also have the great privilege of acting as an adjudicator for the Canadian Whisky Awards.
La Alazana Whisky / It's Only a Matter of Distillation / Season 1 / Episode 4
In today's episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing Lila Serenelli, distiller and owner - with her husband and son - of La Alazana Whisky in Argentina. At La Alazana Whisky Distillery, everything is a matter of family. The 3 of them, Lila, Nestor and their son, run all operations together and seem to complement each other brilliantly. Fun fact : the distillery will launch its 10 year old Single Malt Whisky in 2021. For a whisky distillery, this is quite a milestone!

The stories that shape our love of whisky / It's Only a Matter of Distillation / Season 1 / Episode 2
A conversation with Luc, my whisky buddy of 16 years, in which we revisit the stories that shaped our love of whisky over the years and made us so curious that we've never stopped exploring it since!
Show notes : Luc uses the word "assemblage" on a few occasions in the interview. When he says that word, what he means is "blend". You'll also hear him say "xérès Ximenez", xérès is sherry in French. You'll have guessed that he's talking about Pedro Ximenez sherry. We're from Québec City Canada, English is actually our second language.
