Decoding AQ with Ross Thornley Feat. Co-Founder & CEO at The Hudson House & Distillery

Episode notes

'Succeeding by never giving up.' Charles was a Manhattan Banker, not happy with his life, after nearly 10 years he made the choice to get out. Setting up several nightclubs and lounges, his own vodka brand, and now turned destination distillery experience owner. Creator of Star Vodka, a long journey of research which took him to Moscow to learn how they do it - and a desire to 'do it better'. The Hudson House New York is the first of its kind in the region. Hosting a craft distillery, event venue and boutique hotel and restaurant. From zoning challenges this is a story of grit, perseverance and relentless passion to not 'do things just to do them', but to do them in the best possible way. A story of right place, right time, the tenacity in building a community and finding the right people to believe in your vision.
