Teaching Yourself The History, Chemistry, And Business of Spirits
This week, the Curiosity Podcast welcomes the fascinating Bryan Davis to share his story. Davis owns and runs a distillery in Los Angeles, but it's not your typical distillery – he's found a way to change the chemical properties of rum to age it 20 years in just 6 days. And here's where things get interesting: he taught himself the science behind how to do it.
Today's conversation isn't so much about what Bryan does as it is about how he got to where he is today. Listen to this episode to learn about history, organic chemistry, and business skills all wrapped into one captivating tale.
