Moonshine Ratings and Reviews

Sugarlands Shine Southern Sweet Tea Moonshine

Tyler 7/4/25

I'm a new moonshine fan and after tasting Surgarlands I know I have to order more. Great taste; nice sweetness and a bite of the alcohol. Good for sipping and to introduce others into some good shine.

Sugarlands Shine Mark Rogers' American Peach Moonshine

Mark Rogers Peach Moonshine

What a great tasting spirit! If you like peach like I do you will love this stuff

Sugarlands Shine Mark Rogers' American Peach Moonshine

Very very good moonshine. The taste was Awesome great after taste

Ole Smoky Mountain Java Moonshine

Mixed it with coffee tasted great

Climax Spirits Original Moonshine

As a diverse whiskey drinker I have expanded into moonshine being form NC it’s in out history anyways Climax moon shine is very enjoyable and will add this permanently to my collection!

Ole Smoky White Lightnin' Moonshine

The quality is not there. It gives moonshine a bad name. Good moonshine is smooth, this is rough.

Death's Door White Whisky

New parent company for the Death’s Door brand that discontinued the white whiskey… meaning if you find a bottle on the shelf, buy it. This is my favorite “moonshine.” Pleasant nose, slight burn on the front and smooth finish with a slightly sweet finish. I like this poured over rocks for a simple after dinner tipple.

Stillhouse Apple Crisp Moonshine

Stillhouse makes an excellent clear corn whisky. The apple taste like eating a piece of apple crisp

Glendalough Poitin Mountain Strength

Smoother than expected

After some research prior to ordering, we were pleasantly surprised by the smooth finish to this beverage.
It has a powerful presence to the nose up front and in the initial taste, but the finish is quite nice and if you're not careful can provide a false sense of security if you get too comfortable with it. It does not take much to pack a punch.
The flavor does not come off as Whiskey, Vodka or Tequila, it seems to stand on it's own as a spirit, or a combination of the aforementioned three.

Will definitely purchase again. If we can locate it in stock.

Sugarlands Shine Root Beer Moonshine

Love it like I love Root Beer

We visited Gatlinburg over the summer and this was my favorite flavor then and now (although Apple Pie comes a close second). Very good flavor that comes very close to regular root beer soda, which I also love.

Sugarlands Shine Appalachian Apple Pie Moonshine

Great relaxing Moonshine

One of my favorite drinks.

Glendalough Poitin Mountain Strength

My husband ordered this by mistake. He says it is awful. Very harsh with an unpleasant taste and aroma. Glendalough Gin is very good.

Sugarlands Shine Mark and Digger's Rye Apple Moonshine

Nice flavor, low proof

This is a really good drink but a little sweet for me. If it was 100 proof it might be perfect.

Stillhouse Mint Chocolate Chip Moonshine

Great Taste!! 4/23/22

Get tasting moonshine. I will buy it again!

Goes great over ice!

Ole Smoky Blackberry Moonshine

Moonshine 4/21/22

Sugarlands Maple Bacon Moonshine

Everyone I share it with loves it.

Without exception, everyone I have shared this with loves it and has ordered some. Every time I get a couple of bottles, one goes to a friend who has tasted it. I usually like whiskey on ice or straight out of the freezer. But this I like best at room temperature, the flavor creeps through your mouth and slowly finds ever taste bud. It does not have the "Everclear" effect as do a lot of moonshine recipes. Try it, you will be hooked. It is sweet, but not overly so. So if you are a bourbon drinker who does not like any sweet in your whiskey, you might not like it. But.....you might.....

Sugarlands Maple Bacon Moonshine

Very smooth and very easy to drink!

This is an absolute must try, if you like smoky, not over powering bacon taste. But not just bacon, it is incredible the many different types of flavors that you get as you sip it. I just ordered two more. It is a hit with everyone I have shared it with!

Sugarlands Maple Bacon Moonshine

Now this is really really good!

I am not much of an unflavored whiskey drinker. I sip mostly Smoked Pecan and Peanut Butter flavored whiskey. But now......I have found my favorite! Very easy to sip and very enjoyable. I have converted a few of my unflavored whiskey drinking friends!!!!

Ole Smoky Hunch Punch Lightnin' Moonshine

Brings back the feeling of punch from being a kid but with a smooth kick.

Ole Smoky Apple Pie Moonshine

Rockweedgirl 6/3/21

This might be one of the single most delicious spirits I've ever tasted

Kings County Chocolate Whiskey

Why would somebody make this?

This taste horrible. I tried mixing it with Coke, still discussing. It taste like sweaty socks and everything bad that ever happened to me in high school!

I seriously can't believe that someone sets their alarm in the morning and then goes to work to make this crap. I'm embarrassed for you.

To make matters worse, it's higher priced than most whiskeys. What a total and complete waste.

Sugarlands Shine Mark Rogers' American Peach Moonshine

Very easy to drink very smooth and pleasant on the palate I would definitely recommend this if you're familiar with Mark Rogers you know he makes the best moonshine

Ole Smoky Cherries Moonshine

Perfect for that little extra kick in your Manhattan!!

Kings County Chocolate Whiskey

I tried it a few times and each time it just tasted like bitter, awful, arse. Straight it was bad, mixed with anything it ruined whatever it was added to. I ended up pouring out half the bottle and regretted purchasing this. I echo the other reviews in saying I hate wasting things as well, and pouring something out is something I hardly ever do.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Not what I expected from a moonshine. It’s very smooth and surprisingly versatile in cocktails!

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Cooper Thomas 10/27/20

Delicious, Smooth & Versatile

Absolutely love how Saint Luna has elevated the moonshine game. It brings a level of sophistication that was lacking prior. I love its versatility & the punch it packs for my favourite cocktails. Would strongly recommend!

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Saint Luna is incredibly smooth and easy drinking. This isn't one of those spirits you buy for one cocktail and then it sits on the shelf. Lots of ways to use this, great flavor, complex yet easy to drink!

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

This is a very smooth drink, and it's just as good on the rocks as it is with a variety of mixers. Highly recommend!

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Honestly, when I heard it was moonshine, I did not know what to expect, so I was pleasantly surprised when I tasted it! The moonshine is very tasty and smooth. I have tried it on the rocks and in mixed cocktails and have yet to be disappointed! When looking for a fresh new drink, I would recommend Saint Luna's.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Smooth and delicious! Do yourself a favor and try Saint Luna Moonshine. This was recommended by a friend and now it is part of my liquor cabinet. This is my go to drink for mixing, and yet smooth enough to drink straight or on the rocks.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Yancy | Mr. Bar & Bowtie 10/23/20

Why isn't this more popular?

Easily the best moonshine I've ever had. This product is literally in a category of its own being the only PREMIUM product in its class. For a product that's 50%, it's still so smooth and it works in a variety of cocktails.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Chasitiy P. 10/23/20

Such an excellent spirit that’s smooth and full of flavor.

Saint Luna is a one of a kind moonshine! It’s very smooth, filled with flavor and easy to mix. Highly recommend.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

One of a Kind, Highly Recommend

I really enjoy Saint Luna. It for sure surprised me that Moonshine could be elegant and smooth and delicious, but it surpassed even that pleasant surprise. It's totally unique, and it's really really good. I mostly drink Saint Luna on the rocks, though I love it in a cocktail too because it's 50% and the spirit still shines. Highly recommend.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Extremely smooth, great flavor, easy to drink & best part ....you can make so many Fantastic Cocktails!!!

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Delicious in a cocktail or neat. The Cucumber Eclipse is my favorite cocktail using Saint Luna.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Delicious in a cocktail or neat. The Cucumber Eclipse is my favorite cocktail using Saint Luna.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Surprisingly smooth for a type of liquor that usually has to be drowned in sugar in order to consume. Honestly delicious on the rocks. Just have to be careful how much you drink since it goes down so easily, because this will get you drunk - deceptively strong because it’s so easy to drink.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

This product is amazing with a strong nose, amazing flavor complexity, and it is soooo smooth. My new favorite cocktail liquor.

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Shine Dog 10/22/20

Saint Luna is one of the most versatile spirits I’ve ever tasted. My favorite way is straight up after dinner but honestly, I’ve never had a bad cocktail with this product. I’m a big tequila/mezcal guy and Saint Luna is a legit replacement. Excellent from start to finish!!

Saint Luna Charcoal Filtered Moonshine

Smooth, Caramel-y, Fun for self proclaimed mixologists!

The first thing you'll notice about Saint Luna is that it is exceptionally smooth. Next, the surprise notes of caramel are both pleasant and warming. I spent a weekend with friends trying different recipes using Saint Luna in place of traditional liquors and there wasn't a single cocktail it didn't work in -- it's incredibly versatile. It takes a lot to impress me, and Saint Luna has everything it takes. Try it out -- you won't be disappointed!

Glendalough Poitin Mountain Strength

I will definitely be getting this again!

There wasn't much nose to this which is deceiving. Had great legs in the glass. I didn't get pungent vanilla but I definitely got hints of vanilla and berries with a slight maltiness. The finish was definitely bold and had that alcohol burn that turned into a nice warmth in the chest. Tried it with ginger beer as a mixer and yep, works great!

Kings County Chocolate Whiskey

compares "favorably" with international delight

received a little flask of this from a friend and i agree with reviewer Sam, this is undrinkable on its own. however, i'm here to tell you that a little tap of this really opens up a coffee beverage, hot or cold -- like a low-calorie mocha when hot, or like you managed to dissolve a cube of baking chocolate in your iced coffee. so i reckon in the hands of a skilled mixologist this can really shine as part of some cocktail i don't know about.

Southwind Moonshine

I can only say that moonshine is an acquired taste - that I have not acquired. Thought I would try it. I will stick to bourbon. For moonshine lovers, perhaps this is wonderful.

Sugarlands Shine Jim Tom's Unaged Rye Moonshine

Garagekeeper 6/12/20

I've had a lot of moonshine but hadn't had any rye moonshine lately so I thought I'd give this a try and I was disappointed. It's rye, it's moonshine, and it's rough. The sugarlands products I've had are usually better than this.

Sugarlands Shine Mark Rogers' American Peach Moonshine

Garagekeeper 6/12/20

I wasn't sure what to expect from a peach moonshine from a TV show but this is pretty good. Nice peach flavor with a moonshine taste at the end that's not too harsh and no aftertaste.

Glendalough Poitin Mountain Strength

Great purchase! The taste was wonderful, the amount for the price was spot on and delivery was careful and quick. Will definitely be ordering again!

Grandaddy Mimms Moonshine Mule Kickin' 140

I got some of this from the distillery in Georgia before Caskers started carrying it. This the real deal moonshine made with corn, water and sugar. Incredibly smooth. You can make just about any mixed drink with this.

Grandaddy Mimms Moonshine Blackberry

I got some of this at the distillery in Georgia before Caskers carried it. Amazing flavor. Made using 80-year-old moonshine recipes!

Sugarlands Shine Mark Rogers' American Peach Moonshine

I've purchased Sugarlands before and found them to be the best for quality, taste, and price. This variety is a mellow blend of 70 proof shine and peach which myself and others have found easy to drink without being overpowering or harsh. Definitely one of their better ones.

Sugarlands Shine Jim Tom's Unaged Rye Moonshine

I like good moonshine, this is not good moonshine. The flavor is terrible. It is like drinking turpentine, don’t waste your money!

Glendalough Poitin 40

I’m trying to get the hang of this one. I tried it in cola and that was a mistake...neat or perhaps over a small quantity of ice seems to do the trick.

Ole Smoky Peach Moonshine

Very good but not what's pictured

A very good shine from ole smokey. If they had the one with peach's I would buy it also

Sugarlands Shine Jim Tom's Unaged Rye Moonshine

Bentley4541 4/10/20

Some great shone like the taste since it was like what my grandpa made.

Sugarlands Shine Butterscotch Gold Moonshine

Nice sweet sipping moonshine ... my favorite.

Kings County Chocolate Whiskey

So I’m the first review. I said I poured it out but I’m the type of person that, if I have spent money on something I should try and get the full value out of it, so I hung on to the remainder. Just tried it again out of all fairness and it’s still undrinkable months after the fact. Do not get this. Ugh.

American Born White Lightning Moonshine

I had a lot better Moonshine made in Idaho, Now that stuff was smooth until it hit the bottom of your gut then you had better be ready for the outcome...

Kings County Chocolate Whiskey

Leave this one in King’s County, NY. Just got my bottle and was excited to try. 2 sips in and it’s undrinkable. Immediately poured it out. Was as waste of a good sphere ice cube.

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Strawberry Dream Cream Liqueur

Mama’s strawberry quick

If you liked Nestles quick strawberry milk as a kid, get a ice cold glass of milk and mix it up or add to vanilla pudding for the perfect shot!

Sugarlands Maple Bacon Moonshine

Surprising taste that allows you to taste the maple and the bacon together. Lighter proof that allows it to be drank straight to enjoy the flavors.

Sugarlands Shine Mark and Digger's Rye Apple Moonshine

Smooth flavor that goes down easy and pleasant on the pallet.

Sugarlands Shine Mark Rogers' American Peach Moonshine

I had a chance to try this in Gatlinburg and was my favorite. We also tried several other distillery’s and although they were good Sugarlands was the best. Also most of the other ones were only 50 proof for the same price.
