Some times with a cold it can be hard to smell because of the congestion. And so I think they were just like well maybe that makes it hard to taste. lol
They probably did but the rona is no match for some good quality shine. That stuff has got a few hundred years worth of experience killing colds and the flu.
You guys have a special place in my heart, I am a Vietnam era veteran. I'm ready to cry, because you're going to donate to the wounded warrior project. Thanks guys you are the kind
Three of the best moonshiners ever, but when Digger and the boys decided to auction off the trophy for wounded warriors, well, they hit my heart ❤️. Thanks again for a great video.
Same here! Digger is a stand up guy, all 4 of them are honestly, Mark and Digger get that from Popcorn Sutton, he was all the time helping people out in need….
Doesn’t get no better than that. We have been watching the Master Distiller tv show and think it’s the best show out there, kinda of like a food show but better!!
Y'all won me over the moment you decided to donate to the wounded warriors fund. And having grown up on a farm in NC, he's right farmers help each other
I wish I could have tasted that cherry shine. I still have 3 shots of his special cherry shine worth in a big ole canteen me and my grandma are saving for a special time. My papi loved everything cherry, especially his Australian cherry cigars. Man I miss him, RIP William E. Orton, DD 748 Harry E. Hubbard. Went to take a walk and talk with god on April 22, 2017.
Appreciate your service, wish you didn’t have to go through the mental and physics damage for something so un-needed, your health is more valuable, we’re here for you Mr. Stephens, wishing you the best ❤️
@0:45 they got the RONA and after this episode everyone at tgat filming got it too... i have had it two times once in jan 2020 and again last month two weeks before the kids went back to school we all got it then... but that first round with covid almost killed me, it took 6 family members including my grandparents who raised me and my cousin, i think we took it harder than their own kids did.... F covid
It's about the spirits of happiness they spread. Then they give back to the wounded warriors of the united states of america that's a very touching thing they do. Give a little get a little amen y'all my heart goes out to these good ole boys!!!
I love all these guys. BUT ,as a veteran. I really admire and appreciate . Mark & Digger. Auctioning off there award. For the wounded warrior project. Thanks fella's. my hats off to you. Returning the salute , so to speak!!!...
I was born in the mountains, (mom, dad, and I are all full bred hillbilly’s. My little brother and sister where born in Michigan. They’re not hillbilly’s, but have the smoky mountain blood in em) and my parents moved us to Michigan when I was 7-8 years old. We made snow cream all the time during winter. Wonderful, cheap, and delicious! That was 50 years ago. Thanks for that great memory! Live in Australia now (married a Aussie gal) haven’t seen snow in nearly 20 years.
If I could have friends like this to cut up with, id move a hair north as soon as I’m able to and live the rest of my days in the woods with a jar in my hand. Got some great family across WV, TN and some buddies in GA, but the only people I’ve learned about shining from are in NC. Good times have been spent around a fire
This was filmed in early 2019 so it wasn’t rona. You can have the same symptoms with a common cold because your sinuses are blocked which prevents taste. Also they were kinda just making up excuses lol
If i was the guy that made real moonshine i would be furious having to compete with icecream flavors. It doesn't seem like they established that beforehand. he seemed shocked when they added cream and sugar to it ha
The point he is trying to make at 3:58 for anyone wondering is that the alcohol percentage of the drink is very low. Alcohol doesn’t freeze so any “strong” drink wont freeze
@@rickyray2794 definition wise, its a spirit distilled illegally a liquer is a blended cocktail from a base spirit. So via technicality, digger made a cherry liquer, and mark made a cream liquer. Tim made peach flavored whiskey, and as he used the peaches in the mash, it's by definition moonshine
I'm gonna have to travel that way one day! I need a little more collecting art! I own the dukes of hazzard still, with willie n bert movie! I've never missed a video up to a year ago, I didn't watch you all 50 times boys!
Funny how Mark and Digger have transformed. Before any of this when they found Popcorn Sutton, Mark and Digger both wore Basketball shorts, Tee-Shirts with Nike logos and Nike Shoes. Amazing how people change. Tim is the only TRUE heritage moonshiner out of all three.
Tim is a snob. And I'm sorry but Mark and Digger wore nike basketball outfits? I don't buy it. Either way it doesn't matter what they wore, they could wear leather vests and jeans with holes in them it doesn't make a shittin difference. The way somebody dresses doesn't constitute their background.
I can honestly say though I've had Tim Smith moonshine climax I haven't tried the other dudes but I'm here to say Tim's will nip it in the bud for you I just wish they would redo it with plain moonshine and no flavors that would be a fair contest I mean plain moonshine versus flavored come on
its not really a fair comparison if they're going to start adding flavors. I tried all those super yeast recipes and went back to good old tomato wash recipe. TPW or birdwatcher recipe. there are handy calculators for amounts online. Water, sugar, tomato paste, quick rise bread yeast, a dash of epsom salts and some lemon juice to bring the water PH down. Do not exceed 10% PABV or the yeast will strain and you will get off flavors. Do it this way and all you'll need to do is one stripping run and one distilling/serperation run to get a nice moonshine. Here's a secrete I leared recently. If you add food glycol to the shine it will smell and taste just like vodka if that's what you desire. I still learn things watching vids.. Sorry for the long post.
You can’t have this small amount of people judge all of those different moonshine’s with different tastes to them and textures. Lol it’s at Least 50% placebo effect but I did enjoy watching this!
Yea, but any larger and it stops being a reality TV show and becomes an actual piece of market research. You're right, but this is just for entertainment.
this dude really said "in fact i'd feed it to a baby" after tasting moonshine LMAO
the way he said it tho xD
Thats a real hill billy right there 🤣
His child might have webbed feet by now
He was drunk. Have some sympathy for the man.
these dudes both had covid but that shine killed it off
No doubt about that
That shit works wonders on the body
the pepto bismal was the cure
Some times with a cold it can be hard to smell because of the congestion.
And so I think they were just like well maybe that makes it hard to taste. lol
Just made a batch this weekend for fathers day
This is the hill billy version of forged in fire
This is a fantastic head. But will it keel.
*He drinks the head of the moon shine you throw away*
... It will keel *the man dies*
Your liquor will drunken
Your alcohol…. Will intoxicate!”
😂
The fire comes out of your back end the next day
They caught the Rona talking about no taste no smell
Rona caught them sippin some shine.
yessss bruhhhhh
I was thinking the same thing lol
They probably did but the rona is no match for some good quality shine. That stuff has got a few hundred years worth of experience killing colds and the flu.
Right that whole event was a super spreader
You guys have a special place in my heart, I am a Vietnam era veteran. I'm ready to cry, because you're going to donate to the wounded warrior project.
Thanks guys you are the kind
That moonshine will wash the that COVID out lol
the pepto bismal was the cure
@erin smith ?
AMEN TO THAT
Noshine-19
He was recorded before the pandemic
Three of the best moonshiners ever, but when Digger and the boys decided to auction off the trophy for wounded warriors, well, they hit my heart ❤️. Thanks again for a great video.
Tickle sauced to the moon ! You gotta give it to him , what a great hearted man!
Hes always stoned and wasted 🤣
The Rona ain’t no match for Tennessee White Lightning.
Glad to see Tickle still around making things entertaining 🙌
Digger you literally brought a tear to my eye when you said you're gonna auction off the still and donate it to WWP you're a great man
Same here! Digger is a stand up guy, all 4 of them are honestly, Mark and Digger get that from Popcorn Sutton, he was all the time helping people out in need….
Literally just talking about all the symptoms to covid 😂
Or just the flu….
@@user-op2bh7rc9z can't smell can't taste? Covid baybee
@@SuperLvdr the flu. This was waaaay before covid
Doesn’t get no better than that. We have been watching the Master Distiller tv show and think it’s the best show out there, kinda of like a food show but better!!
My heart dropped when this man said his secret weapon is he brought his crank with him.
Y'all won me over the moment you decided to donate to the wounded warriors fund. And having grown up on a farm in NC, he's right farmers help each other
The guy who said he feed it to a baby that’s funny as hell
I wish I could have tasted that cherry shine. I still have 3 shots of his special cherry shine worth in a big ole canteen me and my grandma are saving for a special time.

Ok
did you actually get diggers moonshine?
Rest In Peace 🪦
Digger has became a Diva since they started this show.
As a retired disabled veteran, that meant alot to many of us Veterans
Ty God bless you
Ray…it didn’t mean shit..besides, what were you in? Desert storm lmao
Appreciate your service, wish you didn’t have to go through the mental and physics damage for something so un-needed, your health is more valuable, we’re here for you Mr. Stephens, wishing you the best ❤️
@@Georgebush1234 👀, don’t mind me, just looking for the person who asked
@@Georgebush1234 man was fightin for our country while u were still shittin yah diaper buddy.
If it don't light on fire it ain't moonshine. Sipping cream! Lol.
@0:45 they got the RONA and after this episode everyone at tgat filming got it too... i have had it two times once in jan 2020 and again last month two weeks before the kids went back to school we all got it then... but that first round with covid almost killed me, it took 6 family members including my grandparents who raised me and my cousin, i think we took it harder than their own kids did....

Love it from Tim. "I was planning on winnin" :)
It's about the spirits of happiness they spread. Then they give back to the wounded warriors of the united states of america that's a very touching thing they do. Give a little get a little amen y'all my heart goes out to these good ole boys!!!
I just keep thinking of Brad Pitt in Inglorious Bastards saying “moonshine liquor”.
Most of these people downing shot after shot drove home somehow 😂
and most of them probly made it
They've been trained
If it was the one in Gatlinburg, they're more than likely within walking distance to where they're staying
Bru it's a moonshine city they made it
@@kingbass8925 I'm from scotland, and we dont have moonshine cities, we do have heroin towns though
Chief Wiggum: Ahh, there’s nothing like moonshine from your own still.
LOL I just watched that episode yesterday
Lol love how tim so paranoid digger got them both sick cause he never does anything wrong😂
I love all these guys. BUT ,as a veteran. I really admire and appreciate . Mark & Digger.
Auctioning off there award. For the wounded warrior project. Thanks fella's. my hats off to you. Returning the salute , so to speak!!!...
I'm from Kentucky, and when he said Snow Cream it gave me a wave of Nostalgia lmao
Every gambler ever: "I was planning on winnin'!"
Facts! Lol….. great Comment!
2:15 Blind Taste Test, poor choice of words lol
Underrated comment
😂😂

The next week all the blind testers couldn’t taste or smell either😂
Man said he had a secret weapon and he sure did 💀
Most wholesome video love it hope these guys still having fun‼️🐐
Awwwww. Sweet one. They totally caught the rona tho.
This was filmed in early 2019 so it wasn’t rona. You can have the same symptoms with a common cold because your sinuses are blocked which prevents taste. Also they were kinda just making up excuses lol
Corona has been around for a very long time just never been as bad when it comes to spreading
“Ma’am, is this your 19th time coming through here?”
“Um 24”
“24? Well okay.”
😂😂😂whoever that judge is is hilarious man dude had me rolling the video
The forged in fire of moonshine
They couldn't taste and smell but still went ahead and invited the whole town over
yeah that is crazy.
Everyone needs some of that shine vaccine.
Eh who cares already, how long are we all gonna hide in our houses.
A lot of hats started turning backwards!! Tickle blistered
This show wildin talkin bout no taste no smell😭
These 3 guys are a class act
This show has some great writers 🙃
Mark and Digger remind me of two teachers I had growing up as a kid.
Tim is hilarious 😭😭
Got a drunk being the judge hilarious!! Who would b better
I sure wish I was there at that time !! I was there a month before that happened I’d love to meet all of those guys !!
Digger is a smart man knowing that women is the key to victory
If i was the guy that made real moonshine i would be furious having to compete with icecream flavors. It doesn't seem like they established that beforehand. he seemed shocked when they added cream and sugar to it ha
Exactly that's why I think they should redo it with just plain moonshine no flavors and see who comes out the best
Well it was a flavored shine competition
Uh, it was a flavored shine competition
I love how tickle sounds like matter from cars
These guys: Calm cool and collected
Any other culinary show: running around like headless chickens
Your exactly right! They were just sittin around cracking jokes, but were all 100% dead serious about what they were doing…
As soon as he said I can't taste anything I thought about covid instantly.
How've I not seen this episode before? Lol. This was great
Tickle: Ma'am, is this your 19th time through? '24th!' Oh, ok then! :D
The point he is trying to make at 3:58 for anyone wondering is that the alcohol percentage of the drink is very low. Alcohol doesn’t freeze so any “strong” drink wont freeze
Won't freeze at normal freezer temperatures. Everything freezes
I think the phrase "blind taste test" for moonshine sounds a little unfortunate :p
I want that little still trophy, thats so freaking cool, be a cool piece for a fireplace mantle..
That trophy is awesome
"too strong" like he isn't drinking my moonshine lol
Genius to go pink for the ladies and the win.
This dude a real entrepreneur talkin about the consumers he’s tryna reach
"he rubbed off onto me" lol
Mark and tim came to make moonshine. Digger came to make money.
No he's not a dumb hillbilly moonshiner
He's just a cool hillbilly moonshiner
And no offense meant at all
@nowonyuno That's actually pretty cool. Don't judge a book
I like this guy who is apparently the judge
That's Tickle he's a moonshiner on the show
"it's a kid's drink!" lol
TO ALL THE GREAT MOONSHINERS WE LOVE THE SHOW THERES NEVER A DULL MOMENT THE SIPPING CREAM IS AWSOME I HAVE 5 DIFFERENT FLAVORS MARK AND DIGGERS
Tickle was surprisingly good at hosting.
10 minute video to build anticipation, posts the results in the title
I mean if you want to be technical, Tim is the only 1 that turned in moonshine, mark and digger turned in liqueurs
Moonshine just means alcohol that isn't taxed, it can be anything.
@@rickyray2794 definition wise, its a spirit distilled illegally a liquer is a blended cocktail from a base spirit. So via technicality, digger made a cherry liquer, and mark made a cream liquer. Tim made peach flavored whiskey, and as he used the peaches in the mash, it's by definition moonshine
love marks and diggers sippin creams they are good
1:14 the drama over a cold lmfao
I'm gonna have to travel that way one day! I need a little more collecting art! I own the dukes of hazzard still, with willie n bert movie! I've never missed a video up to a year ago, I didn't watch you all 50 times boys!
I'm calling "shenanigans", liquor needs to be clear.
I want some of this shine so bad !!
Bruh I think they done got the Rona 🤣🤣
I love how no one even bothers to say did we just get the rona
No such thing exists in the backwood lmfao
2022 still watching moonshiners 🥃
Tim thinking Digger started biological warfare on him and Mark is hilarious!
I can’t tell if he is super drunk or if he is just a clown
Nah he’s faded
both
I don't think Tickle has ever been sober... he's a 24/7 drunk.
I like how the people that are testing the drinks act like they know wtf they are talking about
I am a cannabis guy but Tim the man for drink. Good video.
Funny how Mark and Digger have transformed. Before any of this when they found Popcorn Sutton, Mark and Digger both wore Basketball shorts, Tee-Shirts with Nike logos and Nike Shoes. Amazing how people change. Tim is the only TRUE heritage moonshiner out of all three.

You a damn lie… they were not dressed like that I remember the episode from years ago they were dressed exactly how they are now
I hope digger does an episode where he makes moonshine with his trophy still lol
Let me at it. I love the hooch my grandpa made
I can honestly say though I've had Tim Smith moonshine climax I haven't tried the other dudes but I'm here to say Tim's will nip it in the bud for you I just wish they would redo it with plain moonshine and no flavors that would be a fair contest I mean plain moonshine versus flavored come on
tickles AMEN hit harder than home !
Thank you for think of our wounded solders.
"I ain't done makin' my "go to recipe" in over 30 years......"! 🤔
Looks so good !
Moonshiners: Don't worry about it, the shine will cleanse out your system

I had no idea shine came in so many forms and flavours
Wounded warriors are the deserving for all our donations.. Without them we would have been taking over before NOW ...
