- Who's drinking flavored whiskey and how we can grow that demographic
- Using chefs, bartenders, and culinary inspiration as fuel for product development
- Navigating the regulatory grey areas pertaining to flavored whiskey and distilled spirits specialties
- Optimizing your formulation when using both fresh botanicals and manufactured specialty flavors
- How to approach branding and product placement of flavored whiskeys within an existing portfolio with other, non-flavored whiskeys.
- What might set a "high-end" flavored whiskey apart from the perceived "low-brow" options that currently crowd the shelves.
- And much, much more
