National Moonshine Day celebrates both its history, and its return to the market. Moonshine is a term commonly used to refer to illegally produced or homemade distilled alcohol, typically high in alcohol content. Moonshine is often associated with American history, particularly during the Prohibition era in the 1920s when the production, sale, and distribution of alcohol were prohibited.

Moonshine gets its name from the practice of producing alcohol "by the light of the moon" to avoid detection by law enforcement. It was typically made in small, clandestine distilleries hidden in rural areas. Moonshine was often made from corn or other grains and fermented in makeshift stills. The resulting spirit had a reputation for being strong and potent due to its high alcohol content and the lack of regulation or quality control.

One of the defining characteristics of moonshine is its high alcohol content. Due to the lack of regulation and quality control, moonshine is known for being exceptionally strong and potent. This is because the distillation process may not be carefully monitored, resulting in a product with a higher alcohol concentration than commercially produced spirits.

Moonshine Used To Be Marked With X’s  - Have you ever noticed that in old cartoons they would show jugs of moonshine marked with XXX? Do you know why? It’s because that’s how moonshiners used to label their liquor. To get good quality alcohol, they had to run the liquor through multiple times, and they marked each time with an X. The really good moonshine was the stuff that was run through the still three times, hence the three Xs on the jugs.

Moonshine has been deeply ingrained in American culture and folklore. It is often romanticized as a symbol of rebellion and the pursuit of individual freedom. Tales of moonshiners outsmarting the authorities and their hidden stills in the hills have become part of popular culture.

In recent years, moonshine has gained some popularity as a craft spirit, with legal distilleries producing their own versions. These legal moonshines often draw inspiration from the traditional methods but follow modern regulations and quality standards. However, it's worth noting that the production and sale of moonshine without proper permits and licenses remain illegal in many jurisdictions.

While Moonshine Day may not be an officially recognized holiday, it is a fun day to celebrate it's rich history and try a "legal" drink!
