IAM2081 - CEO and Global Innovator Creates a Global Portfolio of Hyper-Authentic Prestige Brands

In this episode, we have Adam von Gootkin, a lifelong entrepreneur and a pedigree in the spirits industry dates back to his family's distillery in the 1800s.   Adam is a global innovator in the spirits industry, bringing his family's legacy into the next generation by co-founding Onyx Spirits Co., an award-winning craft distillery offering America's first ultra-premium moonshine in New England's first whiskey.   His nationally released book Living Proof: Onyx Moonshine’s Journey to Revive the American Spirit, chronicled his unique approach to traditional business principles.   Adam is committed to bringing ultra-luxury global products born of distinctly authentic brands rooted in the uniqueness of their terroir and providence.   The conversation highlights the importance of having a strong team and prioritizing employees, as they represent the brand and deliver the desired customer experience. He also mentions the need to hire and fire efficiently, especially when the business is evolving.
