I'm not much of a whiskey drinker, but the best shine I ever had came from Tannessee back in the 70's. It was almost like drinking water---until you tried to stand up, then oops.
This past spring, I planted some Mucadines amd am planing more this coming spring. Then in a couple of years I'll make some Muscadine Wine, which I do enjoy.
I had a friend make me 5 gallons last year, and we are drinking it sparingly. He has 5 galloms of Blackberry brewing for me right now, also good stuff.
