On this episode, Ethan sits down with Cleveland Whiskey CEO Tom Lix. In a wide-ranging conversation Tom shares how he learned the tricks of the distillery trade by making hooch during a stint in the navy, how Cleveland Whiskey started with blowing up mason jars in his basement, why his distillery is actually a technology company, and how he’s gone from a Boston transplant to Cleveland’s greatest champion.
