    Lots of Fun and Booze!
    The best part for us was the moonshine tasting. Mainly, because our host was a guy named Mike Savage (from Queens)! Witty and funny, he led us through the 9 different moonshines that we tasted and made us laugh at every shot. The moonshine itself was also very good and we were surprised at how many different flavor selections they had. We ended up taking a bunch home for ourselves and to give as gifts. It's a cool little store and when we came back to get our purchases we met Mike again at the register. Great energy and a fun stop on our trip.

    Fun, educational, and full of southern hospitality!
    Always love going to Ole Smoky when I’m in the area! This was my first time going to the one on the Island (The Barn) and we had a great time. Kaylie was our tasting specialist, she did a great job explaining each drink and making everyone feel welcome. This new location is really convenient and I’ll definitely be back. Thank you for keeping Popcorn’s legacy alive, Ole Smoky!

    We love the Barn.
    Had a great time as always at the barn. We went twice in as many days and (Mike) savage was our bartender. Dude is hilarious. So much so that we deliberately went back to him the second time. I hope he gets his monkey back one day. We also had our dogs with us the first day and the entire staff made them feel welcome.

    Tasting Fun!
    So enjoyable! I'll admit, I needed a little arm-twisting by my wife to go moonshine camping at 11:00 AM, but once we started, our host Breanna made the tasting so much fun! She was knowledgeable, funny, AND persuasive--we wound up buying 3 jars of our favorite. When in Pigeon Forge, this is a very fun thing to do.

    Sampling some moonshine in Pigeon Forge!
    Chuck was the most amazing bartender. He explained the proof of every moonshine and whiskey sample he served. We are going to go back after lunch and buy some for all four of our kids! Plus we need some of that great apple pie for us too! Salted Carmel for my bacon sounds just delicious. Yum

    Sipping Moonshine
    Had so much fun learning about Tennessee Moonshine ~ and our host Chuck was perfect slinging the tastings with Dad jokes in-between. Highly recommend checking it out. PB whiskey and blackberry Moonshine was a good PB&J taste sensation!

    Best MOONSHINE & Customer service! A really fun and happy establishment!
    My husband & I are BIG fans of Ole Smoky! Our bartender September had us laughing so hard and made us want to buy a jar of every single flavor. Sour watermelon is my new personal favorite! If you happen to be in town, you have to stop by Ole Smoky, and definitely be on the lookout for September! 5 STARS! We can’t wait to visit again!
    We'll shine to that! Thanks so much for stopping by, we hope you’ll come on back and see us again real soon.

    Ashton is the best!
    We had a FANTASTIC moonshine tasting experience with Ashton tonight! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the products but also made us laugh until our sides hurt. We will be back on our next visit. Give this young lady a raise!

    quick stop for tasting
    The island itself is chaotic, but while my kids were watching the fountain show with their dad I popped in here for a tasting. For $5 you got 7 samples and a coupon for $5 off any purchase at the end. Many of the local coupon books also had a 10% off and you could combine them. If you bought 3, 6, or 12 you got progressively larger cooler with your purchase which did make transport easier (I did 3) and they had a buy 5 get 1 free promo. Some flavors were better than others, but I didn't get to taste what I really wanted to try so I didn't buy it! With how busy it is I'm sure it's easier to have a set tasting menu but would have preferred being able to choose. All in all it was fine, and brought home a nice gift!

Big John was phenomenal. He taught me a lot about moonshine that I definitely didn't know. We will most certainly come back again.

I did a tasting, and our host Sissy B was amazing. She kept us laughing through the entire experience. While the moonshine tasted pretty good, everything was better having her guide us through it.
