Ole Smoky

Ole Smoky Distillery opened in 2010 as Tennessee's first federally licensed distillery in Gatlinburg. Located in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, Ole Smoky specializes in authentic moonshine and whiskey using traditional Appalachian recipes. The distillery offers both clear and flavored spirits reflecting the region's bootlegging heritage.

Ole Smoky's extensive lineup includes their flagship White Lightning moonshine, popular flavored varieties like Apple Pie and Peach, and Tennessee Whiskey expressions. The brand produces over 20 different moonshine flavors, from traditional corn-based recipes to innovative fruit and dessert-inspired varieties. Their Tennessee Whiskey follows traditional production methods with charcoal filtering, while their moonshine maintains the clear, high-proof character of traditional mountain spirits. Ole Smoky's commitment to authentic Appalachian distilling traditions and tourist-friendly tasting rooms have made them a leading craft distillery in Tennessee.
