Ole Smoky Moonshine Peaches 750ML is a 32.5% ABV (65 proof) peach-infused corn moonshine from Gatlinburg, Tennessee, made with real peach slices soaked in spirit. What separates this expression from typical flavored spirits is its use of actual fruit rather than artificial flavoring — a Gold Medal winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.Quick Facts: ABV: 32.5% (65 Proof)  |  Origin: Gatlinburg, Tennessee, USA  |  Style: Peach-Infused Corn Moonshine  |  Distillery: Ole Smoky DistilleryProduction & HeritageOle Smoky Distillery opened in 2010 as the first federally licensed distillery in the history of East Tennessee, situated in Gatlinburg at the foot of the Great Smoky Mountains — a region with deep roots in illicit corn whiskey production. The Peaches expression starts with Ole Smoky’s White Lightnin’, a corn-based moonshine, into which sliced peaches are submerged and left to steep. This process yields genuine fruit character throughout the jar; once the peaches themselves have been eaten, the remaining peach-infused moonshine works as a ready-made base for cocktails and sangria.Tasting NotesAroma: Fresh, ripe peaches arrive immediately, joined by a soft corn sweetness from the base spirit. A bright, almost jam-like stone-fruit quality lingers underneath.Taste: The entry is boldly sweet, with juicy peach flavor dominating from the first sip. Mid-palate introduces a subtle corn grain undertone that gives the spirit some structure beyond the fruit. At 32.5% ABV, there is virtually no harsh alcohol burn, keeping the focus squarely on the peach.Finish: Clean and refreshing, with lingering fruity sweetness that tapers off gently. The low proof ensures a smooth exit with no bitterness or heat.How to Drink Ole Smoky PeachesStraight from the jar over ice is the most popular serve — the lower proof and fruit-forward sweetness make it immediately enjoyable with no adjustments needed. A small splash of cold water opens the peach aroma further without diluting the flavor. For cocktails, a Peach Mule substitutes this moonshine for vodka alongside ginger beer and lime, where the ginger amplifies the stone-fruit notes. A Peach Moonshine Lemonade pairs the spirit with fresh lemonade for a straightforward warm-weather refresher. The Georgia Bellini uses Ole Smoky Peaches in place of peach purée alongside sparkling wine, giving the Italian classic a distinct Southern accent.Best For
