Not quite sure what forum this post would fit in!
Has anyone tried the flavored moonshine you can buy at the Port of Entry shop at Epcot?
It looks like there are a few flavors --strawberry, peach, apple pie,
I'm looking for reviews!
Also..does anyone know the cost?
 
I've had Firefly apple pie. It is DIVINE! One of my favorite apple pie 'shines. Not the highest proof one out there, but better than most which are little more than fortified apple cider. Firefly has some carmelized crust flavors which really sells the apple pie part (versus just apple). Can't comment on the other flavors though.

One thing to realize is that this stuff isn't really moonshine, at least not how most think of it (a backcountry still with corn mash and a blazing high alcohol content). Most of the recent moonshines are basically "white dog" (unaged) whiskey at regular proof (in the 40-45% range) or flavored cocktails at a low proof (15-30%). Still, Firefly, at last from my limited sampling, is a fairly legit source of good flavored whiskey. If they aren't doing a tasting then just get whichever flavor appeals to you. I'd recommend against the straight stuff unless you are an experienced drinker of it, I find it overly harsh due to the lack of ageing. The others I can sip straight and they are usually pretty smooth.
 
Just a heads up... Firefly is available for purchase at many liquor stores across the country. I've seen it at at least two of our local stores.

Yep. It's been pretty popular here for years. Their first big 'thing' was sweet tea flavored vodka. Pair that with some lemonade and have fun :love:
