This week Zach hits the road to visit and interview a bourbon novice, Jon Peterson. The interview takes place at the World Headquarters of the podcast, That's a Good Point! During their time visiting, Zach and Jon discuss other types of adult beverages, favorite bourbon experiences, go to bourbon choices, and so much more. They finish the episode by reviewing a Bourbon of the Week, and it's one of Jon's favorites. The interview questions asked are listed below if you want to think about them for yourself as well!
So before getting into bourbon, what were some of your adult beverages of choice? (beer? Wine? Gin? Rum?) Tell us some of your favorite ones and what you enjoy about them.
What was your first experience with bourbon(s) and how did that experience impact you and your future decisions regarding it?
What was your BEST experience with bourbon? Could be a favorite type, could be an event or a place you went to. What was it that made it the best experience?
Do you enjoy any other types of whiskeys? (Irish, Scotch, Rye, etc.) Why or why not?
What were some of the first bourbons you bought? Were there any you purchased that you hadn’t tried before and you didn’t like it?
What are some of your go to bourbons? Which one is your favorite? Why?
Are there any bourbons you have heard of that you would like to track down and try?
Do you do any cocktails with whiskey? (as simple as whiskey coke and up) Why those cocktails?
You consider yourself a bourbon novice, you’ve had some experiences with bourbon and visited different distilleries though, so what criteria needs to be met in order for you to feel like you’ve left the novice stage and entered the advanced stages. Do you think that is more about knowledge level or something else?
Like with any good job interview, we leave the last couple minutes for the “Do you have any questions for me?” portion.
