Whipper Snapper - The Spirit of Exploration with Jimmy Mckeown

This week on Non Chill Filtered, Jez sat down with Jimmy Mckeown, the founder of Whipper Snapper Distillery, one of the OG pioneers of Corn Based Distillate in Australia. He takes us through the history of Whipper Snapper, early days of crowd funding a seed round at a barbeque to taking home awards on an international stage.

We chat all things distillery, the amazing charity work for veterans that Whipper Snapper host, core and boujee releases plus everything upcoming so it really lifts the lid on what is to come from this small Perth distillery.

Hope you guys enjoy this episode!

Make sure you put the feet up and pour a glass of something tasty.
