As people continue to panic-shop and strip the shelves bare of essentials like toilet paper and cleaning supplies, a local distillery in Atlanta is preparing to do what they can to alleviate the hand sanitizer shortage. Old Fourth Distillery, Atlanta’s first legal distillery known for their bourbon whiskey, will be providing free bottles of sanitizer made from 95% ethanol and some aloe vera gel to those in need.
In just a few days, the distillery received an overwhelming response. Because of their own shortage of ingredients, the group is asking for donations to help keep the project going, and have shifted to providing hand sanitizer for healthcare professionals and first responders.
