Episode 102 – Absinthia Vermut – Absinthia

This episode features Absinthia Vermut of Absinthia.

It all began in 1996 when Absinthia attended a San Francisco Cacophony Society party. There was a crystal bowl on the table with a green liquid. At that very moment absinthe was still illegal. She tried absinthe for the very first time. To her it was delicious. She was drawn to it so much that she decided to produce it. The first night that she served her neon green absinthe her friends started calling her Absinthia. Of course the name stuck. Our conversation is fascinating and full of absinthe education. You most certainly want to pick up her absinthe and special cocktail mixers.

Episode 100 – Holy Ghost Distillery – John and Janice Sepcoski

This episode features John Sepcoski and Janice Sepcoski of Holy Ghost Distillery.

Janice and John enjoyed visiting distilleries, breweries and wineries. After visiting a distillery 7 years ago John said, “I can do better then this”. This led them to looking for land and a building to host their vision. What they’ve set out to create is a total experience. Not just buy a bottle or purchase a cocktail, but the experience to make new friends over a cocktail. They have left their full time careers to live out a dream. As Janice puts it, “Now I do Bourbon”. We had a wonderful time experiencing their chocolate and bourbon pairing. The final part of our podcast journey was the absinthe extravaganza. It was all a fitting tribute to celebrate our 100th episode.
