So, why would you want to choose craft liquor over the big label stuff? One of the things that drew me in is the entrepreneurial spirit of these distillers. Men and women that, in some cases, quit cooshy corporate jobs, to follow what they love. They’ve given the blood, sweat, tears…and in some cases, mortgages, relationships, sleep and a myriad of other things to purse what they love. And it shows.
