Weaver has sold more than $100 million worth of her Tennessee whiskey, called Uncle Nearest, since she opened the distillery in 2017.
She's about to open a restaurant at the distillery that will feature what they claim is the world’s longest bar — 518 feet long.
In this episode, Weaver talks about how the whole enterprise began.
