From Rye to Armagnac: Pete Lynch's Story

In the second part to our Bhakta Sessions series as we welcome the exceptional Pete Lynch, the master blender for Bhakta Spirits. With a career that kick-started under the legendary Dave Pickerel at Whistlepig, Pete’s journey in the whiskey and armagnac world is nothing short of inspiring. We delve into his deep passion for rye whiskey, the pivotal role of sensory memory in tasting, and his current intriguing project involving a 2012 vintage Armagnac. Pete’s insights into the art of blending whiskey offer a masterclass in balancing flavors and honoring the heritage of historic spirits.

In our final chapter, we explore the rich history and cultural significance of spirits, particularly focusing on Armagnac. Pete and I reflect on the resilience and dedication of producers through historical adversities, and the romanticism of savoring vintage spirits. We also discuss the future of mentorship in the craft spirits industry, emphasizing innovation and the nurturing of independent thinkers. Cheers to another insightful session! Thanks everyone for listening, and thank you to Pete for entering the Whiskey Ring!
