Zach Johnston
Chief Brand Officer, Blackwood Distilling & Renegade Whiskey Critic
Zach Johnston has lived about five whiskey careers in one lifetime. From Berlin’s high-end bar scene to judging international spirits competitions, Zach brings global expertise to every pour. As the former lead drinks writer at UPROXX, he built one of the most-read whiskey columns on the internet, known for pairing top-tier spirits with pop culture deep dives. Now, he serves as Chief Brand Officer and VP of International Sales for Blackwood Distilling in Kentucky. On Film & Whiskey, Zach’s blend of irreverence, authority, and perfectly off-the-wall pairings has made him a fan favorite, whether he’s sipping Barrell Dovetail during Jojo Rabbit or getting philosophical over Ikiru with a glass of Mossburn.
