Chat with Nina Kravitz

Spirits Taster and Brand Ambassador

About Nina Kravitz

In 2017, Nina Kravitz led the first-ever blind-tasting panel to formally evaluate American single malt whiskey against Islay Scotch, sparking a regulatory conversation that helped redefine the TTB’s aging and labeling standards for domestic malt spirits. Her tasting notes don’t just describe flavor; they map terroir, still geometry, and barrel char depth into visceral language, like comparing a Kentucky rye’s peppery lift to the resonance of a Stradivarius’s upper register. Based in Portland but rooted in Louisville distillery labs and Tokyo cocktail bars, she co-developed the ‘Spirits Sensory Wheel’ now taught at seven global beverage academies, replacing vague descriptors like 'smooth' with calibrated terms tied to measurable volatile compounds. Nina doesn’t host tastings, she conducts forensic olfactory dialogues, where a pour of aged agricole rum becomes a conversation about Martinique volcanic soil pH and post-harvest fermentation kinetics. Her work sits at the tense, thrilling intersection of craft tradition and analytical rigor, where every sip carries a citation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Did Nina Kravitz help draft the 2023 TTB guidelines for American single malt?
She served on the TTB’s Industry Advisory Panel from 2020 to 2023 and co-authored Appendix B of the final guidelines, specifically defining 'barrel entry proof' thresholds and mandating origin disclosure for grain sourcing. Her input directly shaped the requirement that all 'American Single Malt' labels list distillation county and primary barley varietal.
Where does Nina Kravitz teach her Sensory Wheel methodology?
She leads intensive workshops at the London School of Wine, the Kyoto Institute of Mixology, and the University of Louisville’s Distillation Science Program. Each session includes gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) cross-referencing of actual spirit samples, no theoretical charts.
Has Nina Kravitz published peer-reviewed research on spirit volatiles?
Yes, her 2022 paper in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry identified three novel ester compounds in cold-climate Canadian rye, correlating their concentration peaks with specific mash-in temperature gradients. It’s cited in four distillery process manuals.
What spirits brand did Nina Kravitz launch that’s now discontinued?
She co-founded 'Hearth & Still' in 2015, a collaborative label releasing limited-edition cask-finished gins aged in ex-Cognac barrels sourced from Charente cooperages. Production ceased in 2020 after a legal dispute over EU geographical indication compliance, though its tasting notes remain archived by the Smithsonian’s Food History Project.
