Learn how moonshine is made from start to finish at this family-owned distillery. You’ll see original copper pot stills that date back to the family’s 1800s farm and hear stories of how their 'shine was famed far and wide during Prohibition – thanks in part to the use of Hocking Hills' sweet spring water. Tastings follow the free tour.
