Ever wanted a barrel of whiskey delivered directly to your living room? George Koutsakis can’t provide that exactly, but he can definitely find one for you to buy. The writer, serial entrepreneur and whiskey lover sits down with the band to talk about a number of his ventures, including Barrel Global, a service that allows organizations and individuals to buy whiskey barrels for a single barrel expression of their very own. George also talks about InBarrel, which allows customers to personalize their own tequila bottles and the Maltyverse, his experiment in illustrated storytelling, complete with whiskey puns. Plus, most major cities have a little sibling, and New Yorkers might not be happy to find out which theirs is. And, it’s a small Scottish craft beer world after all. It turns out Greg and George have a common former employer, and a lot of stories to swap. Follow George at @georgekoutsakis_ Follow Barrel Global at @barrelglobal The Speakeasy is now on YouTube!
