In 2003, the United States had about 60 craft distillers; today
there are over 2,000 in all corners of the country, 500 of which
are making whiskey. This book introduces the entrepreneurs and the
companies behind this American craft whiskey movement. Whiskey
Rebels is a collection of first-person accounts of the brilliant,
brave, and slightly crazy innovators responsible for changing the
whiskey landscape forever--people like Ralph Erenzo, recipient of
the first distilling license in New York State in 80 years who went
on to create Hudson Baby Bourbon; Nicole Austin, a prominent female
producer and vocal activist who brought an indie spirit to the
renowned American whiskey region of Tennessee through George Dickel
Tennessee Whisky; and Bill Owens, who founded the American
Distilling Institute in 2003. Spirits pro and award-winning author
John McCarthy (The Modern Gentleman) has conducted hundreds of
hours of interviews to gather these fascinating first-person
accounts and give readers an amusing and thorough insight into the
world of American craft whiskey. Under his expert guidance, readers
will also learn the requirements to be considered a craft whiskey
distiller, the effect of the craft beer movement on modern craft
distilling, why craft distillers hate the word craft, and many
other pieces of insider information.
