A podcast for lovers of wine, beer, liquor (incl. whisky, whiskey, bourbon, gin, vodka, tequila etc) and cocktails, Drinks Adventures hosts wine makers, brewing and distilling experts, sommeliers, bartenders & more.

Distilling spirits from native Australian foods excites Sacha La Forgia, whose company Adelaide Hills Distillery has released a raft of innovative products.

These include Green Ant Gin and more recently, Native Grain Whiskey, which explores the potential of making truly Australian whisky using the native cereal grain wattleseed.

I'm joined this episode by Sacha, a winemaker who travelled the world for over six years working wine vintages and exploring the world of distilling.

His travels inspired him to launch a distillery of his own on his return to Australia.
