Hand Forged Tennessee Spirits at Old Forge Distillery

Nestled in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, Old Forge Distillery hand forges small-batch Tennessee spirits including award-winning moonshines, cream liqueurs, bourbon, vodka and its newly released Rock & Rye line. Located in the heart of the historic Old Mill Square in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, Old Forge crafts spirits using stone-ground grains from The Old Mill, one of the oldest continually operated gristmills in America.

Inside the distillery, Head Distiller Keener Shanton uses freshly ground grain from the mill and pure mountain spring water to craft his award-winning small batch spirits including 1830 Original moonshine, named after the year the Old Mill was built. Keeping true to the area, Shanton draws his inspiration for his flavored moonshines, like Chocolate, French Toast, Coffee and Peach, from the nearby Old Mill Kitchens.

Old Forge distills spirits by cooking all-grain mashes in a 300-gallon mash cooker/stripping still combination, converting grain starch to fermentable simple sugars. Once the mash reaches the desired temperature, its transferred to the fermentation tanks and yeast is added. Fermentation is the process by which yeast converts simple sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. After a 4-day fermentation period, the resultant 8-10% ABV fermented mash is ready for the still. Distilling vaporizes, separates and re-condenses the alcohol from the fermented mash. From this distillate, many different flavored spirits are made. The leftover mash is used in different products across the property (dog treats and spent grain bread) and the bulk goes to local farmers for animal feed.
Known for its heritage and its focus on innovation, Old Forge Distillery is more than just moonshine. Visitors can experience a variety of different spirits and flavors.
