We couldn’t think of a better way to spend our 200th episode than to discuss how bourbon can be used for charitable purposes. Medicinal Whiskey Charity is a 501(c)(3) organization that was founded by a group of healthcare workers in Georgia and South Carolina in 2020. Since its inception, MWC has raised an astounding $1.5 million total for numerous charitable purposes. For this episode, we are joined by Drs. Malay Shah and Michael Huang who are based in Lexington, KY and also serve as board members for MWC. Since 2022, they have been instrumental in planning the annual MWC Gala event. Over the past two years, this event and related sweepstakes has raised $700,000 for UK Healthcare (Transplant Program and Children’s Hospital). This year’s MWC Gala will be held on December 14th at the Carrick House in Lexington. In this episode, you will get to hear all about the charity, the annual Gala, and how you can be involved. We also taste through some very special bottles (including a 20 year old Knob Creek pick) that will be available at the annual Gala event. What MWC has done so far is nothing short of amazing and we hope you enjoy hearing about everything they do to use whiskey for good.
