A new distillery campus is in development in Southern Pines brought to the area by two Moore County locals. Married military Veterans Jessica Halling (Colonel, US Army (Ret)) and Bradley Halling (Sergeant Major, US Army (Ret)) have already begun clearing off a plot of land for the future home of the Brad Halling American Whiskey Ko. Along with brewing up whiskey, the brand will also focus on “expressing Gratitude for extraordinary service by common Americans, both uniformed and private citizens.”
The public is invited to celebrate the launch of the brand with the owners at a groundbreaking ceremony on Nov. 3 at 4:00 p.m. 175 Yadkin Rd, Southern Pines, 28387.
A rider from a local community will deliver the American Flag to start the ceremony, followed by Southern Pines Mayor Carol Haney who will make opening comments. The Hallings will discuss more details of the project as well as providing whiskey samples and live music from a local band.
Construction on the campus is expected to begin in February 2023.
