This is one episode that was requested by dozens of people. I'm so glad Scott Neil, president and co-founder of Horse Soldier Bourbon and a retired Green Beret. Scott shares how his military background and the ethos of camaraderie influenced his journey into the bourbon industry. The conversation delves into whiskey and war stories. There's a lot of context of how these guys went to war and came back heros. That all influences the inception of Horse Soldier Bourbon, born from bonds formed during service and a shared love for whiskey. Scott discusses the challenges faced by emerging brands, the importance of controlling production for quality with their own distillery coming online, and the role of community engagement in building lasting relationships with consumers.
