Description

The biggest talents in bourbon and whiskey are names we rarely hear: Marianne Eaves, Peggy Noe Stevens, Valerie Netherton and many others. These trailblazing powerhouses come together at SXSW to share their personal stories of survival and success in a business where men have taken the credit for centuries. Award-winning producer and director Leigha Kinglsey has created The Spirit of Women, a documentary film about the women in whiskey and bourbon who have fearlessly taken on the establishment. This panel dives deep into a dark side of the global spirit of bourbon and whiskey.
