Liz Rhoades

Liz is the Head of Whiskey Development for WhistlePig Whiskey. She is a technical distiller and self-proclaimed right-brained scientist with over a decade’s experience in the alcoholic beverage industry. Although she has worked across categories, whiskey is her passion, with experience in large established and start-up brands and operations.

Liz holds an M.S. in Food Science/ Fermentation from North Carolina State University and a B.S. in Food Science from Dominican University.

Outside of making and writing about spirits, she enjoys yoga and Boulevardiers – but typically not at the same time.
