Junior Johnson was one of the best race car drivers of the 1950s and 1960s. He was also a moonshiner. And even though Junior was a fast driver in his prime, he just couldn’t drive fast enough’“ he was busted by the law in 1956 for illegally distilling booze. That conviction was later lifted by President Ronald Reagan in 1986.

Junior Johnson’s Midnight Moon follows the Johnson family’s moonshine recipe. Every batch is handcrafted in very small batches, made from corn and born in a copper still. Midnight Moon is triple distilled to deliver an ultra-smooth, clean-tasting spirit. Real fruit and Midnight Moon are then placed in mason jars by hand (just like moonshiners have done for generations). The bottles are hand labeled and packaged, which goes to show what a small operation it is.
