He made hot sauce, soy sauce and even miso and chocolate. Finally he discovered kimchi. From there he took his expertise and sought to refine and put his stamp on this wonderful fermented creation. Mark provides his experience and knowledge spices and flavors to help add an intense complexity to this Korean icon. Nate and Mark’s expressions are like nothing you’ve ever tried.

Episode 208 – Broken Shed Vodka – Mark Simmonds

This episode features ⁠Mark Simmonds⁠ of ⁠Broken Shed Vodka⁠.

It was in 2009 that two Americans came down to Lake Wanaka on holiday. They fell in love with New Zealand. They were drinking vodka martini’s with Mark and the asked the question. “Why are we drinking these with imported vodka?” Mark has twenty five plus years of experience under his belt making booze. Conversations ensued and a plan was created to take vodka made in New Zealand to the United States market. They developed a recipe for their vodka that is produced from whey. Through product development and trial and error, the resounding favorite, in the shed was the iteration that we enjoy today. Drink it straight, in your favorite cocktail or try making your own infusion.
