Midnight Moon Blackberry Moonshine 750ML

Midnight Moon Blackberry Moonshine 750ML is a fruit-infused American moonshine made from triple-distilled corn whiskey and real blackberries, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof). Produced at Piedmont Distillers — North Carolina’s first legal distillery since Prohibition — this expression stands apart from competitors by using only fresh blackberries steeped directly in the spirit, with no artificial flavors or added sweeteners.Quick Facts: ABV: 35%  |  Origin: Madison, North Carolina, USA  |  Style: Fruit-Infused Moonshine  |  Distillery: Piedmont DistillersProduction & HeritagePiedmont Distillers was founded in 2005 in Madison, North Carolina, reviving the state’s once-thriving moonshine tradition as its first legal distillery since the end of Prohibition. The base spirit is made from a 100% American corn mashbill, copper-pot distilled in small batches, and triple distilled before being blended with water that undergoes a proprietary five-step filtration process. For the Blackberry expression, fresh whole blackberries are placed into the signature mason jars and covered with the finished corn whiskey; the fruit gradually releases its natural color, sweetness, and flavor into the spirit — nothing else is added.Tasting NotesAroma: Fresh blackberry jam leads the nose, followed by subtle corn sweetness and a faint dusting of baking spice. A light brambly character emerges as the spirit opens up in the glass.Taste: The entry is immediately tangy and fruit-forward, with bold blackberry candy notes dominating the palate. At mid-palate, bittersweet chocolate surfaces alongside a whisper of allspice, while the clean corn base keeps things balanced and prevents the sweetness from becoming cloying.Finish: Medium in length, with chocolate tending to take over as the berry notes recede. A gentle warmth from the corn spirit lingers alongside traces of dark fruit.How to Drink Midnight Moon BlackberryChilled and served straight from the mason jar is the traditional approach, and the lower 35% ABV makes this approachable without dilution. Over ice, the blackberry notes open up further and the spirit becomes even more refreshing. For cocktails, try it in a Blackberry Mule, where the tangy fruit pairs naturally with ginger beer and lime; a Bramble, substituting it for the blackberry liqueur component to simplify the build; or a Moonshine Lemonade, where the corn sweetness and berry tartness create an easy warm-weather drink.Best For
