Summary
Sean and September are wrapping up their season of whiskey with the progenitor of whiskey in the US, Moonshine! It had humble beginnings coming over with Irish and Scottish immigrants Moonshine was used like a currency in some parts and functioned as more than a way to get a bit tipsy. Like most things, as soon as it gets popular, then the government wants to tax it. That's what happened to Moonshine, and it's had a tenuous relationship with the law ever since (1781). Despite its dubious existence, it is has a strong and lasting tradition that is still carried on and is also responsible for the literal founding of Nascar. We hope you enjoy our close for the season of whiskey, make sure to chat with us on our Discord and tell us what to do for next season! Cheers!
