Moonshiners airs on the Discovery Channel
Every Spring, a fearless group of men and women venture deep into the woods of Appalachia, defying the law, rivals and nature itself to keep the centuries-old tradition of craft whiskey alive. This season a new generation of moonshiners are striving to take the ancient art into the 21st-century, using age-old methods to produce new flavors and liquor varieties that could transform America’s liquor landscape.
With fortune and glory on the line, old partnerships are tested, and young upstarts look to stake their claim on new territory. As the black market for white whiskey heats up, desperate shiners put new, dangerous still designs into service, while legendary old-timers come out of retirement to head back into the hills for one more run. All the while, the ever-present threat of the law continues to put the squeeze on those dedicated to America’s original spirit.
Maple Bacon moonshine is a sweet and savory spirit that combines the tastes of smoked bacon and candied maple syrup. The distinct blend is easily taken as a shot or combined to make a smoky, full-flavored cocktail.
Our Maple Bacon moonshine is an extension of our Outlandish Series and is a great conversation starter at any party!
Serve our Maple Bacon shine alongside peanut brittle, potato chips, donuts, bourbon, caramel, butterscotch or pancakes.
Maple Bacon makes the perfect Bloody Mary! You can also use it as a substitute for sweet vermouth in a Manhattan.
