Sugarlands Patti’s Mayhaw Moonshine is from the Legends Series — a rare Southern expression made from mayhaw berries (Hawthorn berries), which grow primarily in swampy areas of the Deep South and produce a distinctive apple-like fruitiness with a zingy tart finish that most spirits drinkers have never encountered before.
Mayhaw is a berry few people outside the Deep South have tasted — the small red fruit of the Hawthorn tree grows in flooded areas of Louisiana, Mississippi, and neighboring states, where it has been made into jellies and syrups for generations. Sugarlands’ Patti’s Mayhaw Moonshine brings that rare regional flavor to a spirit format: the apple-like fruitiness of mayhaw combined with pure cane sugar sweetness and the clarity of well-crafted Gatlinburg moonshine, in the vibrant red presentation that reflects the distinctive color of the mayhaw berry itself.
