This is Firefly's White Lightning Moonshine, all the way from Wadmalaw Island in South Carolina, USA. Presented at 100.7 Proof (50.35% ABV, for those of us on this side of the pond), this is a powerful, subtly rustic but tasty tipple.

The best moonshine in the market I have lived in USA for 30 years and it is a blessing that I can still get the best moonshine ever made now that I am the uk.
Nose is quite nice. Strange sweetness on tasting, must be the corn. Generally unpleasant to drink straight up. Burn is stronger than anything I’ve drank before and I’m familiar with La Fee absinthe. Bearable mixed with coke. Big fan of bourbons, younger cognac and favoured ‘shine. I can drink Nikka ‘from the bottle’ at approx the same strength but this one isn’t for me. Hopefully the more expensive palmetto stuff I bought won’t be like this. Could understand it if it was cheaper.
Perfect for sipping straight from the jar next to a fire , it has a bite which goes into a corn flavoured chest warming buzz. Will definitely be buying again !
Firefly is true corn whiskey, not like some of those out there that claim to be moonshine but taste of nothing. It is sweet, smooth and my favourite alcoholic drink.
My old man is a fan of the infamous TV show, so I thought Father’s Day was a good excuse to delve in to the world of shine. I never thought he, or I for that matter, would be drinking 100proof straight and find ourselves enjoying it. I’m a big fan of rye mashes, so the heat from this is more than welcome, but the smoothness is unreal. I get a great corn feel and an almost buttery finish. Well worth a buy and nothing like the jar of turps I was expecting to end up with
