What The Crop?

Foundational blocks like Rye, Corn, Wheat and Barley grain are often discussed as the beginning of whiskey, but if you've followed this podcast for more than 10 minutes you know those crops begin as ideas, then get nurtured before they can ever be mashed, fermented and distilled. Considering we are in the middle of the corn planting season for the majority of the United States lets have a quick refresher of the crops we covet, their impact on history, any initiatives that I could find and whatever else comes up along the way. I'll also be opening some bottles that I've picked up over the last few weeks and probably talking about them too.
