Sugarlands Distilling Company Announces Rye Apple Moonshine
Gatlinburg, Tennessee (PRWEB) December 30, 2015 -- Sugarlands Distilling Company, distillers of award-winning moonshine in the Great Smoky Mountains, has announced Rye Apple as the newest addition to their celebrated line of moonshine offerings.
Rye Apple is an 80 proof, apple infused rye moonshine born from a collaboration between Sugarlands Distilling Company and legendary distillers Mark Ramsey and Digger Manes. The two moonshiners and long-time friends rose to national fame with appearances on the well-known Discovery Channel show, Moonshiners.
Prior to making television appearances, Mark and Digger were East Tennessee legends with a passion for distilling. Together they built “Big Ash,” a signature 1,750 gallon still fueled by a ferocious fire and a growing demand for the area’s most famous illegal “likker.”
“We are thrilled to bring Rye Apple to Sugarlands Shine fans everywhere,” Ramsey said. “We worked hard perfecting this recipe and we think it will be an instant hit with people across the country.”
With the release of Rye Apple, Sugarlands Distilling Company now has 12 varieties of moonshine available to taste and purchase at their distillery in downtown Gatlinburg, Tennessee.
Mark and Digger will join Jim Tom Hedrick, Mark Rogers, and Steven Ray Tickle as the newest members of Sugarlands Distilling Company’s “Legends Series.” The group is comprised of an elite team of legendary moonshiners, all of whom have made appearances on Moonshiners.
Fans of Sugarlands Distilling Company can purchase Rye Apple moonshine beginning Dec. 29 at their distillery in downtown Gatlinburg and at East Tennessee stores in early 2016.
Rye Apple joins a celebrated line of Sugarlands Shine that has won 20 awards internationally since distillation began in 2014.
