Dr. Sonat Birnecker Hart Shares Koval Distillery’s Remarkable International Story

With this episode, I’m going to introduce you to a company that offers products with such intriguing flavors as Rose Hip, Chrysanthemum Honey, Ginger, and Cranberry .  The company is Koval Distillery, and I had a marvelous conversation with our distinguished guest, Dr. Sonat Birnecker Hart, co-founder and President.  Prior to opening KOVAL Distillery, one of the largest fully independent and woman-owned craft distilleries in the US, she spent over a decade as a full professor in both the United States and Germany.  In 2008, she gave up tenure in hopes of a different quality of life; one that would afford an opportunity for her to work with her husband, give up commuting, and return to the city she loved: Chicago. I hope you enjoy this episode. After you’ve listened, we would love to hear your thoughts and comments, which you can post at https://www.exportstoriespodcast.com/ or on our Facebook or LinkedIn pages.
