what is moonshine???

Kentucky and Tennessee are famous for making Moonshine. Its basically fermented alcohol brewed in your own home. It is illegal because it is so easy to make and impossible for the government to tax. It is extremely strong and can come in all different flavors. If you ever have moonshine, PLEASE take a small amount out of the jar with a spoon and light it on fire.

Moonshine is illegal in places where alcohol is taxed. The process to make it is from factional distillation and these devices are illegal just about everywhere (the only exception being New Zeland). There is some argument about distillation of ethanol for fuel being alright, but it is more about trying to evade current law then anything else.Moonshine does not make you hallucinate, nor go blind.

Moonshine (also referred to as white lightning, hooch, mountain dew, and various other terms) is a common name for illicitly-distilled liquor. The term is commonly believed to derive from early English smugglers (called moonrakers because of an 18th century legend) and Appalachian home distillers who often engaged in illegal distillation and distribution of moonshine whiskey clandestinely (i.e., by the light of the moon)....
