Traxler Littlejohn is a father of a 4-year-old boy, a 1-year-old girl, a 10 week-old German Shepherd. He is also the husband of an amazing wife who wrote this whole campaign. Lastly, he worked in HR for 13 years and finally found his passion: making craft spirits.

He has always been inspired by his heritage. Heritage is something that is handed down as a tradition, and in his family that tradition is food. Generations of talented home cooks influenced him since he was a two-year-old boy propped up on his Nana’s kitchen counter as she faithfully prepared their meals. As far back as he can remember, he has been fascinated by the techniques, recipes, craft, and creativity of the culinary arts, working his way through high school and college in a variety of different restaurants.

During his 13 years in corporate Human Resources, he maintained his passion through hobbies and side gigs, smoking BBQ and brewing beer with buddies on the weekends. With the encouragement and support of family and friends, he finally decided to take the leap into entrepreneurship and owning his own company, putting his talents to good use and further engraining myself into the Charleston community he loves. There was never a question of what area he would venture into. As a boy, he dreamed of having his own moonshine still, hidden in the backwoods of some rural piece of property. His grown-up “man self,” now with a family and responsibilities, chose to take the legal route, and just maybe, make a living doing something that worked his body, roused my mind, and finally, fueled his passion deep within.
