Dr. Whiskey has been drinking and collecting whiskey for over 25 years. It started with an idle curiosity and has grown into an identity. The good doctor started out drinking mostly Scotch and Irish, but fortuitous trips to Kentucky and Tennessee in 2006 shifted his focus to balance the old world and new world products. He does his best to keep up with the multitude of products that are being offered by new-to-the-market and long-standing distillers and whiskey makers.

Dr. Whiskey leads a community of people who enjoy the company of other good people. The community meets up in The Garage, or other places in Los Angeles. Dr. Whiskey also leads private classes and does whiskey consulting.

Dr Whiskey holds a PhD in Mathematics from UCLA and is an Executive and Certified Bourbon Steward through the Stave and Thief Society.
