You & Yours Distilling Co. owner and founder Laura Johnson has accomplished quite a bit since opening her distillery in 2017. She was named a 2018 Eater Young Gun, made it onto the 2018 Forbes “30 Under 30” list and has won various other local awards for the craft distillery located in San Diego’s East Village.
Now, Johnson is aiming to help other women enter the notoriously male-dominated distilling industry with a scholarship to attend Moonshine University’s Six-Day Distillers Course. Moonshine University, located in Louisville, Ky., offers the course as a way for students to gain a hands-on distilling education.
The scholarship is valued at over $6,000 and offers students the chance to gain technical spirits training and business management education from experts in the field. The course is designed for those who are passionate about entering the distilling world.
