  • 92nd Y @ the JCC: Bourbon Barons

    JCC of Syracuse 5655 Thompson Road, DeWitt, United States

      Join the JCC for a live-streamed event from the 92nd Y with spirits expert and author Noah Rothbaum alongside Rabbi David Ingber, with special guests Max Shapira and Kate Latts of Heaven Hill Brands, for a fascinating evening uncovering the Jewish legacy within America’s whiskey story. In his latest book, The Whiskey Bible, Rothbaum traces the global history of whiskey while shining light on a little-known chapter: the pivotal role of Jewish immigrants in bringing whiskey to America. From bootleggers and distillers to visionaries who built enduring brands, Jewish entrepreneurs have woven resilience, ingenuity, and identity into the very fabric of this iconic spirit. Together with the Shapira family, leaders of one of America’s most storied, family-run distilleries, this conversation will explore the intertwined narratives of tradition, adaptation, and entrepreneurship that continue to shape both whiskey and Jewish-American identity. Guided by Rabbi Ingber, the discussion will weave history, culture, and spirituality into a spirited and thought-provoking dialogue.
