A True Southern Spirit (Jimmy Sharp)

Jimmy Sharp, co-founder of John Emerald Distillery, joins the show. Sometimes, you just can't let a hobby be a hobby. For Jimmy, his interest in distilling, and growing family, led him to take a step out, alongside his father,  and turn his hobby into John Emerald Distillery. Now almost 10 years down the line, Jimmy shares what he has learned about distilling, and what he hopes for the future. That future now is set in oak barrels that may not be ready for years to come, but all things are made better with time and a little patience.
