So I am in the very beginning stages of opening a small distillery. I am new to the industry but not to business. The years I spent in Combat arms with military may have made me a little (or a lot) suspicious of random kindness so I need to get a general feel of this industry. I have had more than a couple craft distilleries around my area offer to help me get started with advice, suggestions, lessons learned, I even had one guy who offer to take me into his building and walk me through his entire distillation process, Start-finish. I couldn't believe it. Is this industry really that mindful and open with each other or am I being let on?
-Note- I am in favor of Suzzane Massie's famous quote for Regan, "Trust but Verify"
Thanks All
Matt
