A few years ago, Clare was working in wine production and sales when the idea for a new, more adventurous approach to wine education took hold of her. Now that she's at the helm of the booze education organisation The Humble Tumbler, you could say she has one of the best jobs in existence. A healthy dose of drinking all sorts of good drinks, then researching, talking and writing about them, has put her fair and square among all the great people who make up Australia's incredible liquor industry.
