Moonshiners is a documentary series that explores the underground world of illegal whiskey production in Appalachia. Despite federal prohibition, moonshining remains a thriving multi-million-dollar industry and a cultural tradition passed down through generations. The show follows skilled distillers who operate hidden stills deep in the woods, crafting "white lightning" using camouflaged equipment while evading local law enforcement determined to shut them down. Viewers witness rarely-televised practices, from the sacred first firing of a still to the techniques of legendary moonshiners like Marvin "Popcorn" Sutton. Moonshiners balances the artistry and heritage of the craft against the constant threat of arrest, offering an intimate look at a way of life that persists in the American South despite its illegal status.
