The four founders readily say that Old Hillside is an “ordained” company. Why do they believe this so strongly? Well, it began when others warned them against trying to sell their bourbon in North Carolina. Because it is a controlled state, others told them that their business would fail immediately. Instead, they got into stores and sold out, breaking multiple records. The luck continued in California, when the brand was accepted into Bevmo!
