Title: If you love you're country, you have to love MOONSHINE!!!!!
Post by: bootl3gg3r on June 13, 2012, 11:36 pm
Roadies,

The time has come that bootl3gg3r can offer great Appalachian corn whiskey at great prices, all untaxed and under the radar of Uncle Sam., delivered to your front door.
Few flavors to choose from y'all
Straight
Peach
Strawberry
Apple Pie

Served up in quart Mason jars and bubble wrapped to hell and back, then shipped priority to the location of your choosing.

Priced at $55 per quart including shipping, can't be beat for the quality of this liquor folks.

I don't have me one of them fancy seller's accounts yet, but if there's enough interest I'll round me up one real quick.  Post here if you'd buy some and I'll get me a sellers account by next week if the demand is here.

What is the proof?

Also... I'm not really sure that is a good price. If I can get a 750ml bottle of vodka in the store for 10 dollars, that comes out to 300ml of alcohol for, y'know, 10 dollars. Under the radar is fine, untaxed is fine, but $55 for a quart seems high. Then again, I've never dealt with moonshine before and I don't know how hard it is to distill something to whatever proof moonshine has, so I could be talking out of my ass.

The moonshine I've seen is usually around 100 proof, but I believe it can be much stronger. I'd compare it to drinking everclear or 151, sometimes a little more harsh. The flavored ones are probably a better choice, I tried a really good peach one a while back.

I guess thats the point - if you want to sell moonshine thats fine, but at prices that exceed store bought booze by far, what would be the point?

Then again, I've never dealt with moonshine before and I don't know how hard it is to distill something to whatever proof moonshine has, so I could be talking out of my ass.

Proof on the fruit varieties is 120 or 60% alcohol.
Straight corn whiskey is 180 proof or 90% alcohol.


Now, let's compare this moonshine to your run of the mill ten dollar a bottle vodka:
a Quart is 946.35mL, a fifth is 750, almost 25% more off the top.
standard vodka at 90 proof or 45% would be half the potency of this.
vodka, for the most part, tastes like ass whereas this can be drank straight and it tastes great.


I'm not trying to talk y'all into buying this shine, believe me I'm not.

If you can find it locally for cheeper and bring it here cheeper, I encourage you to do so.  I am not obtaining it locally, therefore risk is increased with traveling.

Families need fed, kids need clothed, big trucks suck gas, wives buy too much shit, etc. etc.  Every vendor on SR is here to make money, I am no different.  To those of you saying my prices are unfair, what would you say is fair for a Quart of shine shipped to your front door without having to try to find it, distill it, or drive through a few states to get it? I'm interested to know this.

Store bought booze is never going to be moonshine, on the buzz or the flavor, it just can't happen.
With $10 of this going to shipping I don't see my prices to be all that unreasonable.

When (or if)  this takes off, I will be buying more and the prices will come down.  I happened to meet the source out of luck this past week and I figured maybe i could make something happen over here.  If I can't then I'll just sit on what I have and drink it every now and again, no biggie ;)

Check around the forum man. There's not really too many folks selling or asking about alcohol. Can you get any coke? There's a real need for US domestic coke on SR

I'd be interested in some pure moonshine!

At least 100 proof!

But shipping to the UK I guess its not a good thing. Shipping grams of coke is one thing but a gallon of moonshine?

Ah okay, i never figured it would be considered a superior product.

I'm european, and people do brew and distill their own alcohol here too (mainly in scandinavian countries where alcohol is expensive), but as far is i understand it's basically about creating the most alcohol at the lowest cost.

I guess alcohol content for most liquor is 35-40%, though there are plenty of vodka brands that do a 50% (would that be 100 proof?) version as well. If you distill your own you can easily get higher concentrations, though drinking those straight up is not for the faint of heart :)

I wish I could get some into your country mate, I'd send you the first free sample.  This moonshine is something everyone must try once before they die.  Once you drink this, you may not be able to drink store bought booze ever again.  It's really that good, folks. 

These are anywhere from 60%(120 proof) for fruit varities all the way to 90%alcohol (180 proof)  on straight clear whiskey.  This shit isn't for the faint of heart and will kill you if you're not careful with it.  This isn't your mommy's vodka that you can drink all night partying it up.  This is that shit that 4 shots will put a full grown man on the ground not knowing where he is ;)


Hopefully we can get something going here roadies, I have always seen lots of people wanting it on here.

No worry - I am looking at making a still and we even have ready made kits for the faint of heart!

I agree everyone ought to try moonshine at least once!

Also this comes in handy for people who want to wash coke, speed and so on.

Ah well, I got some Irish Poteen waiting for me which is basically alcohol distilled from grain. It burns if you light it.

In the UK a lot of people make their own beer, wine but few distill their own moonshine!

The still I am looking at is priced at about 70 BTC or so (In real life)

Add water, grain, bit of yeast and sugar and whatever else. Its all automated. Safe also. I would love my own still and would sell it IRL as many people like that knock out punch type of drink. Alcohol is a drug people! A good one!

I'm sure i could enjoy drinking some moonshine.


Drinking the local booze is a great way to interact with people all over the world. despite regretting it the morning after :D
