It\u2019s a package deal. And this episode has plenty of both. From Sharpsburg\u2019s swanky 1028 Podcast studio, Day and Ed welcome Kenyan Hicks, owner and distiller of Pittsburgh\u2019s Noire Expedition distillery. Theirs is a 90-proof, floral, American gin, with notes of lavender, citrus and juniper. The three take theirs neat, while they discuss the finer points of gin, the craft beverage industry\u2019s pay-it-forward mentality, and a long-lost uncle named Lumpkin. It\u2019s a journey and an episode so Black - it\u2019s Blackity-black Black.
