Bootlegger’s Bash: Moonshine and Prohibition in Tennessee


Listen Later

In 1909, Tennessee became one of the first states to vote to prohibit the sale and manufacture of alcoholic beverages. But this does not mean that the production of alcohol ceased. In fact, during the years of prohibition, Tennessee became known for moonshine: high-proof distilled spirits produced without government authorization.


This week on "TENN in 20: Official Podcast of the Battle of Franklin Trust," join hosts and historical enthusiasts Brad and Sarah, along with special guest Heath Clark, owner of the H. Clark Distillery, as they discuss Tennessee's complicated history of alcohol and prohibition.
