In today's show, we had the incredible honor of speaking with Maureen Robinson, the new master blender at Kentucky Owl. Maureen has an impressive 45-year history in the Scotch whisky industry and has recently come out of retirement to join the bourbon world.
Maureen shared her journey from studying to be a pharmacist to becoming a master blender, a transition fueled by her passion for the science of whisky. She discussed the similarities and differences between blending Scotch and bourbon, emphasizing the importance of balance and the excitement of learning about bourbon's unique charring levels and mash bills.
We delved into the creation of Kentucky Owl's Maester, a bourbon crafted in a Scotch style, and Maureen walked us through the flavor journey of this special blend. She also touched on the importance of maintaining consistency in core products like Kentucky Owl Confiscated and Wiseman, and the role of new distillate in the blending process.
Looking ahead, Maureen hinted at the potential for Kentucky Owl to explore new innovations, global expansion, and possibly even American single malts. She also discussed the brand's approach to barrel finishing and the potential for single cask releases.
Maureen's dedication to her craft is evident, and she's already thinking about training a successor to continue the legacy of quality blending at Kentucky Owl. Her story is a testament to the evolving world of whisky, where tradition meets innovation.
