In the rest of this writing, we shall especially discuss Henry Law, his age, net worth, personal life, and more.
Henry Law On Moonshiners
Before we proceed, let us tell you that Henry Law’s full name is Henry Lee Law.
As Moonshiners continues to delve inside the reality of Moonshine-making in 2022, Henry and his business partner/cousin Kenny returned on the Discovery show after a long absence.
So far, IMDB listed Henry for a total of 35 episodes for his appearance on Moonshiners between 2019 and 2022.
Henry is the owner and operator of Law’s Choice, a third-generation moonshiner and master distiller from Franklin County, Virginia. (Kenny is his business partner.) The Law’s Choice is the fourth distillery to open in the area since January 2016.
Together, The Laws cousins decided around four years ago to take their practice to the legal side, taking advice from one of their probation officers, after illegally making the distilled liquor for some time. For this, Henry secured federal and state permits to open a distillery in honor of his father in 2016; with plans to produce brandy, corn, and a little bit of everything else using his father’s recipes. A few years later and the Laws started selling it as ‘Hell’s Holler’ to state ABC stores in Roanoke, Bedford, and Alta Vista. They have established customers in Philadelphia, New York, and Baltimore.
How Much Is Moonshiners Star Henry Law Net Worth?
Moonshiners star Henry Law reportedly held above $500 thousand as net worth as of February 2022.
Henry’s family were in the illicit moonshine business for almost a century. During those times, they produced millions of gallons of moonshine whiskey in Franklin County in their old-fashioned way, which is now known as “The Moonshine Capital of the World.”
In 1952, 16-year-old Amos Law, Henry’s father, began his career as a moonshiner in Franklin County Virginia, which kickstarted the business which is today called Laws Choice.
Amos quickly became one of the most notorious moonshiners in the country. He is the one who showed Henry and Kenny the ropes when they were kids.
So, in this journey of proving whiskey, Henry has also put the stories of the Law family and the others from Franklin County’s moonshining days into a book called 100 Proof: The Untold Stories of Notorious Franklin County Moonshiner Amos Law.
Henry is said to have extensively researched for the book as it even contains a map of Franklin County that shows the various locations of illegal whiskey stills that the Laws operated over the years. On its pages, Henry has said it all, how in Franklin County just saying his father’s name Amos Law can get one pretty far in the moonshine business and how once the local legend warned him “You’re going to have gold around your neck, but shackles around your feet” before he learned to make liquor.
Henry’s father illegally made whiskey for about 60 years of his life. Both he and Henry have been caught and convicted of making illegal moonshine.
