Ep #7 - MKT Distillery Tasting Room

JUSTICE
About this episode

Howdy folks, Justice here with the 7th Episode of Texas Whiskey Talk the voice of the Texas Whiskey Experience. This episode is Part #2 of our two part series where the Weave and I visited MKT Distillery in Katy, Texas. In Part #1, we did a walking and talking tour through the distillery. In Part #2, we sit down with Nick and Nici Jessett and they run us through all of their spirits and craft cocktails. As far as spirits go they’ve got gin, vodka, moonshine, white dog and couple of Texas Whiskeys. You’re going to want to try them all, I’m not a gin guy but that gin is highly drinkable. Not a juniper bomb, citrus forward, great summer drink. As far as vodka their Bloody Mary is voted #1 in Katy Texas and then their whiskeys have got that unique element of having rice incorporated into the mash bill. You’re going to want to try it all.
