While filming the show, Amanda also developed a special connection with the distiller Chris Uyehara. As she shared in a Facebook post, Amanda's relationship with the maker came out of nowhere.
She actually saw Chris running through traffic outside of her hotel to get some food. So she gave him a ride and they ended up having dinner. He turned out to be a talented distiller who guided her as a thank you for her kindness toward him. The pair remain friends to this day.
Amanda still makes distilling the main focus of her social media presence.
It appears that distilling has grown into more of a lifelong passion than a hobby for Amanda, who still fills her page with her work creating the beverages. Now with a genuine fan-following and some real distilling acumen from being around masters on Moonshiners as well as in her personal life, Amanda is poised to be the benchmark for the next generation of moonshine brewing legends.
