It’s a bit of a departure on the show this week as we’re talking about spirits with long-time beverage writer Aaron Goldfarb. He has a new book out:
Dusty Booze: In Search of Vintage Spirits.
Goldfarb has been a journalist for over a decade, frequently writing on the subjects of cocktails and drinking culture for such publications as the
New York Times,
Esquire,
Playboy,
PUNCH, and
VinePair, and has had features written about his career in the
New York Times,
Forbes, and the
Boston Globe. His previous books include
Hacking Whiskey, named a finalist for Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards Best New Book, and
Gather Around Cocktails. In 2020,
Tales of the Cocktail named Goldfarb the Best Cocktail & Spirit Writer for the year. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife, daughter, son, cat, and a lot of bottles of booze.
