Scratching The Surface Of Moonshine's History

Artisanal distillation and artisanal distillation; distilling spirits is deeply rooted in American history and is becoming more common in American society's nomenclature. The term "artisanal" evokes the idea that small batches of spirits are made in a home environment and beer is made at home. While there is a family aspect to it, "artisanal distillation" refers to the idea of making a liqueur that starts primarily with the ingredients and is distilled with the same attention to detail as was customary throughout American history.

 Thus, artisanal distilling is different from large, established distilleries. Artisan distillers are actively involved in every aspect of the professional distillation of spirits, from the selection of ingredients to bottling and labeling, ensuring the artisanal quality and value of the spirit.

This craft has had clear beginnings for thousands of years but has been subject to regulations and prohibitions in some places for some period of time.

The first clear evidence of artisanal distillation comes from a Greek alchemist working in Alexandria in the first century AD. The Chinese may have developed this practice independently at about the same time.

Medieval Arabs learned the distillation method from the Alexandrians and used it on a large scale. In the early medieval period, the Mongols used another method known in Central Asia as "frozen distillation" or "Mongolian still life". This technique involved freezing the alcohol and then removing the ice. The freezing technique was not widely used because of its geographical and practical limitations. Many people believe that this technique has significant drawbacks because it concentrates instead of reducing toxins like methanol and fusel oil, but this has proven wrong.

People practice artisanal distillation for a variety of reasons. It's cheaper than buying comparable drinks at the market, allows you to tailor the recipe to your own tastes, and allows you to make drinks that aren't available on the open market.

Real Moonlight comes in two flavors, legal and illegal. The essential difference is that one is taxed and the other is not. It's all about taxes. If you go to most liquor stores, you can buy Georgia Moon Corn Whiskey, Platte Valley Corn Whiskey, Best Moonshine Still, Cat Daddy, and other forbidden liquors. The federal tax on a gallon of whiskey is about $15, and it's not the first time the government has taxed whiskey and distilled it illegally; in the 1700s, the surplus had to be distilled by lower-class farmers who were struggling to get their grain to market because of the remoteness of the area, so they had to distill the surplus Sometimes, some have engaged in quiet bickering, while others have organized violent rebellions against it.

No one knows the exact origin of the name Moonshine. According to Wikipedia, the origin of the name Moonshine comes from the old English term "moonlakers" or simply "moonlight", which now means smugglers and the illegal operations involved in their production. This just goes to show that since time immemorial, what is banned has always been something delicious.

Perhaps because it was illegal, the allure of moonlight was a mystery to him. The question for people before that was what made it illegal. Is it because it tastes so strong and satisfying? Is it because it's an Appalachian drink? Unfortunately, the truth was far from the love story she was keeping. It's only illegal because the government doesn't receive any excise tax. These days, the name "moonshine" can be used for spirits that do not pay taxes. However, as a result of the 2008 and 2009 recession, some states have had to relax their distillery laws in order to create jobs and maintain tax revenues. As a result, moonlighting suddenly became widespread.

Since the signing of the state law, the popularity of undeclared jobs has skyrocketed due to the widespread popularity of the practice. One of its rapid spread factors is that it doesn't need to be aged in barrels. People are becoming more nostalgic and have to deal with the harvest. The desire for nostalgia and a foretaste of a bygone era is what draws people in and leads them to a new hobby.
