Grandma's apple pie, poured from a mason jar with a warm Tennessee kick.
What it is
Ole Smoky Apple Pie Moonshine blends the distillery's corn-based moonshine with apple and cinnamon flavors for a sweet, spiced sipper bottled at 70 proof (35% ABV). Ole Smoky Distillery opened in 2010 in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, at the edge of the Great Smoky Mountains, and helped bring legal, small-batch moonshine to a wide audience. Apple Pie is one of the brand's best-known flavors and a go-to for holiday gatherings, tailgates and fall bonfires.
