SHINING WITH MOONSHINE, THE OTHER KIND OF CRAFT SPIRITS

I always thought Moonshine was illegal!

No, Moonshine is about fermenting grains like corn, rye, wheat, or barley and then distilling it to make a white whisky, that is an un-aged whisky. Eastern Europeans had vodka and western europeans had Moonshine.

Moonshine is often associated with the history in the hills of West Virginia and its southern neighbors, and rebellious hill Billies in the USA. The US has a long tradition of making whisky with different perspectives: Kentucky has bourbon, Tennessee has whiskey, and West Virginia has Moonshine.
