We also chat about Grandaddy Mimm's Distillery in which Tommy is the head of in Blairsville, Georgia. They have the best moonshine and I got to do a taste test of a variety of shine, whiskey, and vodka.
Be sure to check out Tommy and his music and follow him on his socials along with the distillery website for more information on where to get your shine on!
