What is Moonshine?
The most common definition of moonshine
is – high proof distilled spirits that are generally produced
illicitly. Referred to also as white lightning, hooch, homebrew,
mountain dew, and white whiskey, Moonshine is illegal because it is
brewed in the home which makes it nearly impossible for the
government to tax it. Kentucky and Tennessee are famous for the
production of Moonshine. Certainly the ever popular folks at Short
Mountain Distillery are no strangers to the finest tasting and best
aged Moonshine this side of the country – their one of a kind,
extraordinary Short Mountain Shine. Typically made with corn mash as
its main ingredient Moonshine is extremely strong and can be
distilled in all different flavors.
Best Aged Moonshine
Moonshine mellows out and changes its
flavor over time. This aging process is critical to the ultimate
taste and the strength of the brewed Moonshine. At Short Mountain
Distillery we spend a great deal of time and technique in our unique
aging process. Our best aged Moonshine is aged in oak barrels just
like it was hundreds of years ago. These oak barrels are considered
to be the best and most effective way to age liquor. The flavor
generated by the oak barrels will change over time. In the beginning
of the aging process the oak can very well present with a smoky taste
and smell. No need to be alarmed. This smoky flavor will mellow
over a period of time and simply requires patience on your part as
the aging process unfolds. Truly, you will ultimately find yourself
in the presence of the best aged Moonshine in all of Tennessee.
