In Canadian Spirits, a new book authored by bestselling author Stephen Beaumont and award-winning magazine author Christine Sismondo, NC’s Artisan Distilling program is featured on page 101.
Authors Beaumont and Sismondo assert that NC’s innovative program is a way for those wanting to become small-batch distillers to learn the trade. Historically, wannabe distillers would have to learn the trades through an apprenticeship at a distillery or take a course at a private institute.
The authors write about how the program was born in time with the boom in small-scale distilling in Canada. NC’s David Dickson is mentioned, commenting on the overwhelming demand for the program.
Canadian Spirits write that the program – offered over two semesters – covers distilling science, regulation, distillery management and practical distilling, in which each student gets to create their own spirit.
