This week I have part 2 of my conversation with Scott Blackwell, owner/distiller of High Wire Distilling Co in Charleston, SC which he runs with his wife Ann Marshall. This part of our conversation starts with how and why he started the distillery. If you're interested in his entrepreneurial journey up to the point of starting the distillery you can find part 1 here. We talk about taking a creative, culinary approach to craft distilling, using premium, specialized ingredients such as Jimmy Red Corn and Bradford watermelons. We also discuss High Wire's recent collaboration with Allan Benton.
