Last week I got a package from one of my writers. When I opened it, I was surprised to find he had sent me jar of moonshine whisky. It was 80 proof and was "corn likker." My benefactor lives in an area where such beverages are commonly produced.
I had heard all sorts of tales about moonshine and "white lightning," but when I tried it, I found myself quite liking it. And I've never acquired the taste for whisky. I suspect the fact that it was only 80 proof made it more palatable, but in all, I thought it was a pretty good drink. More like vodka than aged whiskies, I think.
Anyway, do any of you have experience with moonshine? If so, did you like it?
