How Much Money Do I Need to Start a Distillery | Talking to Brewbird (3x40)

:

I sit down with Vanessa Braxton, the first female African-American Master Distiller in the United States. She is the founder, master blender and distiller at Black Momma Vodka in New York. After working as a structural engineer for two decades, she decided to open a distillery in her retirement. She used all her retirement savings, and some of her husband's savings to finance her dream of owning a drinks brand. 2022 marks the 10 year anniversary of her distillery. In this video, we discuss everything money, from how Vanessa financed her distillery to the costs involved with the day-to-day operations of Black Momma Vodka.
