Happy Hour Live with Scott Neil and Nick Ravenhall

Earlier this month, Nick Ravenhall and his brother Alex did
something most of us would never dream of trying. They led a
small team of swimmers through Scotland's treacherous
Corryvreckan whirlpool as part of their Whisky and Waves campaign
of open-water swims around Great Britain. The "Whisky Smugglers"
are carrying small bottles of whisky during their swim that will
be blended and sold later this year to raise money for Sea
Shepherd's ocean conservation efforts in New Zealand, where the
Ravenhall brothers call home. Nick joined us on the
#HappyHourLive webcast along with Horse Soldier Bourbon
co-founder Scott Neil. He and his partner, John Koko, were part
of the U.S. Army's team of Green Berets that led the post 9/11
invasion of Afghanistan on horseback, a mission that was
portrayed in the movie 12 Strong. They've turned to
making whiskey now, with plans for a $150 million dollar
distillery project in Somerset, Kentucky that is in the final
stages of approval, but they still have adventure in their blood
as well.
