Jackie Zykan is the Master Taster for Old Forester in Lousville, Kentucky. Originally from St. Louis, Jackie's background is full of unique experiences (science, business, and bartending) that led her to this one-of-a-kind role. She sits down to talk to us about the winding road that led her to Old Forester, what a day of tasting 30-90 barrels of bourbon looks like, and how being a super-taster affects her palate and food choices.
