How many people can say that their second home is in Hawaii? And that wine, beer, and spirits is their family business? Merle Rosenstein can. She is a freelance travel, wine, and food writer from Toronto, Canada, with Level 2 Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) certification. Her dad was a traveling liquor salesman, her partner worked for the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO), and her daughter works for a major beer company. Rosenstein completed an internship with Canadian Traveler Magazine, and wrote for Quench Magazine, IWA Wine Country Blog, The Canadian Jewish News, Chocolatour, Best Health Magazine, and Vacay.ca. She has toured wineries across Chile, sipped wine in Spain, and interviewed winemakers in Tuscany.
