This is a zoom event from a few years ago sponsored by the RI Historical Preservation and Heritage Commission. The discussion centers on an archeological dig completed in Bristol, RI of the Pierce Distillery. It was a rum distillery part of the "triangle trade", and whisky also features in the discussion. This dig is literally 50-ft from my house's rear façade. It is truly in my "backyard". Please note the expert is an archaeologist not a distiller, so any distilling terminology that may appear inaccurate is completely acceptable. https://youtu.be/zNHM_c-_a64?si=1uGKfeixLMsmwkPY
