When Lori's team approached me about doing an interview and sent me a bottle of Country Smooth, I noticed that the bottle referred to her as the first female founder of an American whiskey brand.

My jaw almost dropped to the floor. Seriously? This can't be true.

Well, being a stickler for accuracy, I researched and was amazed at what I found. In this interview, I'll get more of Lori's experience in a very male dominated industry and get a sense of her mission for the brand and the legacy she wants to leave.
