Faces To Places

Leatherwood Distillery

February 18, 2021 Ken Smith Season 2 Episode 1

Come and join me as I visit with Andy Lang, owner and head distiller at Leatherwood Distillery in Pleasant View Tennessee.  Andy is a retired 26 year Army veteran and a Special Forces Green Beret that tells us about making moonshine in the mountains of Afghanistan and how he once made wine out of a MRE while overseas. While sitting across the table Andy also talks about the very fine hand crafted rums, bourbons, rye whiskey and moonshines he makes there at Leatherwood Distillery.  I also go on a behind the scenes tour of the distillery and as a bonus I get to sit down and have a conversation with Masoud Rezai who was an Interpreter for the Army Special Forces in Afghanistan. It was truely an honor to have the opportunity to do an episode on Andy, Masoud and the Leatherwood Distillery.
