Best Moonshine Flavors in 2021: Midnight Moon Awards

With the year winding down, it’s time to celebrate our moonshine flavors and award them with superlatives. Of course, every jar of Midnight Moon is a winner, but each flavor has a special perk that you get to enjoy when you sip some Midnight Moon ‘shine.

These superlatives may be silly, but they can also inspire the best parties in the new year. No need to wait, though, there’s still plenty of time to party like it’s 1920 (you know, like when we had Prohibition and moonshine was illegal).

Get out your flapper attire if you’d like – it’s time to announce the best moonshine awards in 2021:

Don’t worry, the first sweet impression is definitely there, but there’s also some depth that will keep you interested for the long haul.
