Best Shine Tasting in Pigeon Forge!

By Mike R |

It was suggested by friend to go see Bubba at Tennessee Shine in pigeon forge, and that we would be missing out if we did not. They were TOTALLY correct. We had awesome time with him at the tasting, so much so, we came back next two nights!
June 4, 5, 6. Hes a great fella, and makes shine tasting quite the experience!! if your ever in pigeon forge, and plan a moonshine tasting, Tennessee shine company is the place to go!! Bubba will hook you up!! take a walk with Bubba!! thanks Bubba for the great experience!! keep it up!!

Bubba is the best

By Tangela R |

Bubba is one of the coolest guys. We come 2-3 times every year and we always come see him at Tennessee Shine. On your vacation make sure you stop and see him.

Bubba

By Dale R |

Bubba is the best at Tennessee Shine. He makes your visit worth the trip. He is always nice and enjoys seeing his customers try new flavors

WILD BILL rocked our world

By butrcup74 |

Great time—Wild Bill was fun and informative! Great time. Come visit Captain Spaulding… just as fun and not as scary. Drinks are great but company was better.

Was an awesome experience. Bubba is a great guy to sample with we always have a great time when he is working.

By Randy G |

We had Bubba as our sample server. He did a great job and we had a great time with him. We went to Gatlinburg to see him just to find out he moved to pigeon forge so we drove there to sample from him and buy our shine there.

The alcoholics from ky.

By Daphne L |

What a awesome time. Brian did such a great job on the tasting. He was so funny and just made the experience even better. Whole staff was amazing. The flavors were so good. I was a VIP for around 30 min. Thank you Tennesse shine. We didn't leave empty handed

Moonshine fun

By Gabby S |

Super fun! J$ did a great job explaining the moonshine process. Wild Bill was so entertaining and did a great job with our tasting!

The Best Distillery and Winery in the area!

By Brent G |

Of all the Moonshine places in the area you must stop here on Teaster Lane in Pigeon Forge. The staff at this location is top notch! Heidi is great and took us through all of the wines. These wines are fantastic! We ended up taking quite a few home. Bubba is the funniest shine server in the area. The mixed moonshines were out of this world. We ended bringing some of these home as well. We will definitely be back to visit Tennessee Shine Company and Heidi and Bubba.

Employee "Big Sexy"

By WIpaintchip |

Nice little museum. When finished with the museum we went to the wine bar for tasting. Big Sexy was working he was a smooth talker and was aggressive for a sell. Went over for shine tasting and seem to be ignored.

Bubba Rocks

By Brent S |

Bubba did a great job with making everyone feel welcomed and was very entertaining! Tennessee Shine Co Rocks! Make it a point to check out this great place.

Amazing!!

By Julian M |

Absolutely amazing atmosphere! Worm was our bartender and he was hysterical! We had a great time! 10/10 recommend!

The Shine is off this Shine retailer

By caddyjak |

Tennessee Shine has gotten too big for their britches. Even the Pigeon forge location is charging for samples. Old Smoky and all the Gatlinburg places were forced to charge for sampling. Most all the rest of the moonshine retailers offer a few sips gratis. The gal on duty incorrectly advised that ALL the liquor distillers charge now. At any rate, we've been customers of this brad for 6 or 8 years and enjoy the creme product, so we gave 'em some business. If you're touristing in the Smokys, just go someplace else.

Awesomeness

By Stephanie B |

The level of customer service is top notch because these were the nicest people! The shine is amazing and we will def make this a staple every time we’re here!

Fun Pigeon Forge Pit Stop!

By Andrea L |

Worm was great! Provided an enjoyable tasting experience with his witty one liners! Very patient with my wuestios, and knowledgeable with his answers.

Great experience

By Jarrod W |

My wife and I went in just to experience the tasting and had a great time. We had Wild Bill as our host who was very fun and experienced in any questions we had for him.

Great Date Adventure

By Heather B |

It was a great time, great bartenders and distillery/distiller. Definitely recommend stopping by! Had a great couples date at it

Moonshine/Wine tasting on a raining day!

By Lindsey C |

This was an amazing experience for a cold rainy day. So many decisions in one trip. Moonshine tasting was amazing, we went when it wasn’t busy so it was very personable and they took the time to explain the different flavors and went above and beyond our expectations. We did the moonshine tasting first, then did the wine tasting with Christina. We purchased bottles from both the wine store and the moonshine store. Will definitely be back our next time in the area!!

Sip before you buy!

By insight2actions |

The most creative tasting room, with everything from candles, food and spirits! Lots of fun & the staff is awesome!! Hard to make a choice of the best flavor!

So Much Fun!

By scubafreak88 |

We had the best time at our tasting today! So glad we had Bubba for our guide. He was hilarious and poured the best tastings. I highly recommend you visit this place and see Bubba!

Tennesse Wine Shine

By T K |

Tennesse Wine Shine on Teaster Lane in Pigeon Forge Tennessee is the best! Thanks to Big Sexy for the great experience and tasting. Your Holiday in a Cup is Awesome! Will be back soon!

Fun great time

By Stephanie S |

Scott was awesome and j money was awesome firefighter friendly fun place to be come check out soon will visit every time we come to town

Tennessee Shine Company in Pigeon Forge gave us the best experience on our last day here in Tennessee!

By Sherpa34531672892 |

We walked in early Monday right after opening and was welcomed with great hospitality from Shana,Brittney and especially BUBBA with giving us an amazing moonshine taste test. He gave us a lil bit of history of not only of the company but also his personal story which was very interesting and we absolutely loved the hospitality from everyone. They were by far more comfortable to talk to than some of the other distillers around town. I very very much recommend stopping in and trying out their stuff, their moonshine is slightly more authentic too if i do say so myself.

Best tour!

By Rachel C |

Bubba and this tour were a BLAST! We’ve done a few tastings since being here and this was by far the best. He is very gracious in the pours and very knowledgeable. Definitely reccomend

Very pleased

By Crystal W |

Shana was hilarious! She made the wine tasting so fun!! We would definitely go back. Thank you Shana for keeping us laughing throughout our visit.

Bubba is the Best

By Macey L |

If you’re not tasting with Bubba, you’re doing it wrong!! He is the absolute BEST mixologist and deserves your time and company. The moonshines and concoctions will not disappoint! 💕

Bubba!

Great tasting with Bubba!

By Jessica W |

Great tasting with Bubba! He had some really fun suggestions and I learned I love Bloody Mary's (or at least theirs!). Their own Bloody Mary mix with their jalapeño cornbread moonshine topped with a splash of their pickle juice 🤤 So glad we stopped in.. thanks for a great time!!

Great experience!!! Great person!!

By DayTrip04032291134 |

Bubba is the best server and just a great person!! He always is so friendly and always has a smile on his face. His drink concoctions are delicious. He is always a highlight of our trip. We visit several times a year and always remembers us. Great employees are hard to find this day and age and you have a great one in Bubba!!

Bubba was the best!

By Megan R |

My boyfriend and I stopped at Tennessee Shine Co after a day at Dollywood, and had Bubba as our host. He was hilarious, offered for us to try any flavor we wished, and gave a real authentic Tennessee experience. Thanks a lot!

The best of both worlds... Wine and Shine

By Trek41849626578 |

This was a great stop because some people in our group like wine and some like moonshine. Everyone was happy.
There is a working still on the back room and Paul was more than happy to walk us through how the moonshine process works. He took the time to answer all of questions except their recipe. 😉

A Must Do and Stopping place in Pigeon Forge!!!!!

Bubba and Heidi were A-mazing! Their friendly personality felt like home! Their moonshine was so incredibly smooth. Bubba as a mixologist was dangerous! Free pours had me <3 We will definitely be back and seek him out in Gatlinburg!!!!! Plus the kid treat for our littles was so generous!

Love this place!

By Sharon N Andy |

Amazing, super friendly staff. Bubba and J$ are hilarious. Met new friends--Dave and Debbie from New Jersey. Debbie and I are embracing out gray hair as founding members of the gray hair club!

Dismissive attitude

By Luke Akard |

So I had been in there once before and had so much fun! This time though, wow. We walked in, were greeted by the register employees promptly they were so nice! So we go to stand at the tasting bar, the only thing this older man says to us is “you boys better go look around and see what ya want cause I got about 20 people about to come up here” in the most dismissive way possible, so we left. He then says loudly “well I don’t tell them to leave!” Well what the hell are we supposed to do?? Sit and wait after you dismissed us so quickly? Yeah forget it.

Big Bubba. Tennessee Shine

Went to Tennessee for a quick weekend getaway and stopped in Tennessee Shine for the moonshine tasting. Bubba was our bartender and he was great. Lots of fun, made the experience very memorable. He knew the shines and mixed them to make some amazing combinations as well. Will definitely stop in again the next time we are in town.

Floridians tasting TN moonshine

By Tyani H |

Rented a cabin nearby with my husband, sister in law, and friends … we were passing through the area and noticed the moonshine tasting sign turned around and figured we would give it a try. So glad we did, it was a very fun and informative experience. Heidi , Bj, Worm and another gentleman who told us about the wine slushy were all very nice and the moonshine and wine was amazing 🤩

Thank you !
From the FL visitors ☀️

Moonshine

By Logan M |

Best moonshine I’ve had in a while down here!!
Bubba and D are the best and made our experience all around 110% amazing!!
During tasting Bubba goes above and beyond explaining products and staying friendly.
110/10 for a rating and I will come back🫶🏻

Fun and Tasty

By Nicole H |

We have tried many moonshines over the years, commercial and backwoods, and this has to be some of the smoothest hands down. On top of great shine Bubba was our bartender and he was so fun, cracking us up and well as giving us a great taste of what Tennessee shine Co has to offer. We have all heard of old Smokey and Sugarlands (which have some good offerings) but TSC is superior in taste! Highly recommend checking this place out if shine and fun is on your list

You got to stop here!

By Shenita C |

We were visiting the area for my husband’s birthday and we really enjoyed ourselves. JMoney and Wild Bill the bartenders were very entertaining . Paul who runs the moonshine distillery was very informative having done this all his life.

Best shine bartender ever !

By Kaitlyn D |

Scott was the best, most entertaining bartender we could have asked for. He was the coolest, funniest ever! We do shine tastings all the time & he was the best we’ve dealt with by far. The store was so clean & smelled amazing. The staff is absolutely great, anytime your in the area stop by & see Scott! You won’t be disappointed!

Go see Bubba!

By Scott L |

We've been to Tenneesee Shine Co numerous times, but this time, by far has been the absolute best visit. Bubba is the best bartender that we've had at any tasting. He's funny and treated us like he's known us all his life. We will definitely be returning. 10 out of 10, highly recommed.

Maybe be better than Ol Smokey

By Sgtkb |

Morgan made the first visit really fun, left feeling pretty good. We had to make a second trip back and ended up buying a sampler and Whiskey

10/10 Best Shine in Town

By Lauren S |

Bubba was the greatest and kept us laughing! He is knowledgeable with which shine mixed well together and will always have us as loyal customers when we are in Gatlinburg. The girls were super helpful and such a good time as well. They had wine slushes that were off the chain. 10/10 you will not regret the experience!!!!!

Hidden Gem for sure!

By Lacee Y |

We met Paul in the back by the actual working still. He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and answered all our questions about the still and the Moonshine process. He was a literal gem and so polite. We loved speaking with him!
We then moved to the tasting counter and found BJ who, again, was so friendly and knowledgeable. He told us about the history of the recipes and which shines went best with what mixers, etc.
Overall a great experience and a must stop on your next visit!!!

Happy Moonshine Time

By Katie C |

Wild Bill was impressive and the drinks were truly out of this world! Great time and great drinks! Definitely try the cream moonshine if you are able!

We Shine in Tennessee!

By Michelle B |

Dontaye, Gabe, Britt were awesome, so knowable and made it fun for the family! Yummy wine, slushy and delicious moonshine!

Great product and pet friendly. Staff is great

By Stephanie B |

Britt was awesome!! Super friendly and fun. Wines were great and i purchased Rocky Flat Red. Moonshine was also very good. Purchased White Chocolate raspberry and Jalapeño cornbread. Excellent selection. Only con was that it smelled nauseatingly like marijuana that we left early instead of shopping for more bottles. We couldn’t do the smell. We would have liked to have shopped more and even check out the shirts but couldn’t handle the smell. Pet friendly

10/10 a must!

By Cynthia M |

10/10!!

Moonshine and good vibes!

By Molly M |

My boyfriend and I took a trip for his birthday weekend to the Great Smoky Mountains and our stop at Tennessee Shine Company was one of our favorite parts of the trip! We are so glad we chose this place to get moonshine because the experience inside sold us! We had the pleasure being served by BJ who provided us with many laughs and knowledge about the products. We spent longer than we anticipated there but we aren’t mad at all! We left with great memories and lots of yummy take home presents! Straight off the Still is my boyfriend’s favorite and brought 2 home from our 6 pack we made! Seriously can’t thank BJ and everyone at Tennessee shine co for a great experience! :)

A must stop when in Pigeon Forge. Come for the shine and leave with some new friends.

By Gary O |

What an AMAZING experience! The spirts, shine and wine were all wonderful, but it's the people that make it so special. Bubba, Paul, Heidi and the other ladies were great hosts. Everyone was so friendly and they make you feel that you truly are welcome and appreciated. We had so much fun...Bubba had us laughing til we cried. Hats off to the amazing folks at Tennessee Shine.

Great welcoming experience

By Katie C |

We were looking for a welcoming and not so busy place. This place was amazing. GREAT STAFF! Very knowledgeable and was willing to help us find the perfect mix. I highly recommend going and checking them out!!

Excellent Tour

By Leslie B |

Wild Bill, Jay Money & Brian were amazing! We had a great time, tried some great wine & moonshine & left with several bottles!

So impressed with em, I got their autograph!!!!!!

By Robbie S |

What can I say!!!!! Scott and Brittany are my favorite 2 people right now!! Great prices and full of product knowledge!!

The ‘shine isn’t the only star!

By Lynnette M |

The fun begins the moment you walk in the door! Instantly greeted by fun, friendly staff. Tasting all the moonshine flavors, bourbons and whiskeys (all excellent) was taken to a new level when served by Bubba. He made the tasting so much fun, showed us how to make flavorful mixes, and was just a sweet soul. A great stop and one of the highlights of our trip to the smokes.

TN shine company 10/10

By Christy S |

Scott and Brittany were phenomenal! They were funny, personable, and knowledgeable! I 10/10 recommend!! Ask Scott to serve you the banana split—it’s great!

Heidi

By Julie B |

I always make it a point to stop in here. Love this place and this time was even better. Heidi was more than helpful, fun and laughed with us the entire time we were there. Greatest customer service ever.

The spot I was looking for

By Michael H |

As I was pumping gas, I seen the Tennessee Shine Company and I said “This may be the real deal” B.J gave a great presentation very energetic and passionate about the Moonshine and history. He also helped us choose a great bourbon to add to our bar at home. Heidi rung us up and had great customer service to go along with the pleasurable experience. Would recommend 10 out of 10

Educational and fun experience

By Sakinah B |

We took a chance selecting this distillery due to its convenience to our stay. We had an absolutely delightful and fun experience with Scott in the moonshine and spirits section and then Shana in wines. What a great team! And we loved our selections enough to bring some home to New York!

Moonshine tasting

By Jessica H |

Everything was good and the service was exceptional. Try the pink kitty and the dill pickles! Katrina, Scott, Brittany were so so helpful, knowledgeable and friendly.

Scott💜

By crystal r |

Scott was the best he gave good recommendations for not only moonshine but for food. Will come back for him and some wine!!

Great people, great moonshine

By Iva O |

Literally had the best time. Had some time to kill before going to Dollywood and few minutes after I came in a was greeted my multiple employees asking if i wanted a sample. The bartender was awesome with recommendations and i tried so many flavors! After I spent a long time talking to Heidi, who was a pleasure to be around and was full of friendly conversation and great business ideas. I’m so glad I ended up here.

Scotty with hot ass body

By Brandon S |

He was amazing and super nice. Scott he’s definitely good. Definitely enjoyed it. He took care of us! Just looking for something to do catch him at the shine!

Bloody mary

By Rachel E |

Tastings were good, I got everything for bloody Mary drinks. Jalapeño corn bread shine was the best. Gonna go back to try a few different things

Let Worm pour you a shot!

By Linda S |

My husband and I went to the Tennessee Shine Company yesterday. There are lots of other distilleries near by and we are so glad we found this one! We had such a fun time! When we walked in the door, we were greeted by some of the friendliest staff ever. And then we met Worm! Best and funniest, I guess you call him a "bartender". He introduced us to the world of moonshine! He is awesome! And our visit to this distillery will not be the last!

I learned how to shine.

By Don O |

Paul was very knowledgeable. He is a true artist when it comes to shine. Paul knows how to make each batch the same. I look forward to sampling his wares.

Bubba!!!!

By Karen R |

Bubba is AMAZING. Come for the shine and stay for the comedy. Ask for the mixed cocktails. They are so yummy!#bubbaforpresident

Thank You Bubba!

By Alyssa H |

We tried some amazing moonshine/bourbon and had amazing service courtesy of Bubba! Shared some laughs and had a great time! Definitely come over if you get the chance!

Great experience!

A place to visit every trip to TN

By Blake |

Love coming to Tennessee shine. Every trip to TN we are sure to see Bubba while we are up. Bubba is great, the stories and laughs you will have are not forgeable. Not to mention the shine is delicious. Be sure to sample the orange cream it will bring back childhood memories!!

Pickle was a good time!

By BrittanyP |

Came in for a tasting and had a great time! Pickle helped us and allowed us to taste quite a few flavors. Plus, he was funny and a good time. We were in Pigeon for a week and visited twice!

A Must Visit Location !

By Janet R |

A fun experience. Bubba is amazing ! So much fun! Don’t miss it! Don’t skip the grapefruit moonshine was surprisingly delicious.

Moonshine

By Heather O |

Bubba was amazing. 😉. We went on a moonshine tour with Smokey tours. We visited Tennessee shine Co and had such a great time. Our bartender Bubba was fun and made us feel so welcome.

Awesome

By Excursion29807523958 |

Paul was amazing! Very nice and informative! Paul you rock! We had a great time! Everyone was so nice. We will definitely be back

Wonderful Tour!!!

By Ereka J |

This wine and moonshine tasting tour was great!! Although we had rainy weather, they made sure that we had a wonderful home. Bubba was a spectacular host. Her was personable and made you laugh till you had cramps. This was a wonderful tour.

Moonshine

By Carlbr1 |

Kaylee was so awesome. He knew all things shine. We paid for the tasting and got comedy as well with it. He explained all the flavors and the deals when he was finished. I would highly recommend paying him a visit. You won't be disappointed at all

Best Experience Overall

By Rowdy Reverend |

This place is much better than all those yuppie places that are so crowded that you can’t even get up to the tasting bar because of all the children sitting on the ground. Bubba is awesome at mixing the shines & teaching some great pairings. We always go to TSC. It’s just all around better.

Tennessee shine!!! The best in town

By Kelly J |

BOBBA !!!! Makes everything taste delicious!! Stop by Tennessee shine and have a time of ur life. You get your free tasting with a hint Of cream which makes it heavenly.
Come taste some pretty good stuff with
ur favorite moonshine server.

Scott was amazing!

By Tam F |

Scott was AMAZING! Best bartender. Pleasant and funny! Hilarious! OMG he made this trip very fun! I will be back!! Love!

Great Visit

By Dan G |

Rissa was awesome. Sampling’s were great. Entire staff was very friendly. Bought both shine and merchandise. Rissa made the visit great!!!

A must stop!

By joeleen d |

Bubba, Brittany and JD were fun and attentive. We left laughing and a few bags too. You have to eat the pickle and try the bloody Mary!

Bubba is the best

By Bethany W |

If you haven't been to see Bubba at Tennessee Shine, you are most definitely missing out!!! He will make you laugh and pour you shots. What's not to love?!?! I can't wait to go back.

Tennessee Shine is soooo fine!

By william a |

The Tennessee shine Co makes way better spirits the others in the "smokies"! I have visited both and they're all amazing. The one in Wears Valley is my favorite, but the one in Pigeon Forge is equally amazing. The wine they make is amazing too. Highly recommend this place over others. My personal opinion of course.

Excellent experience and great moonshine

By Ratchit1972 |

We stopped in to try a tasting and it was a much better experience than Ol Smoky moonshine where they pick what you get to try. Scott was an excellent server! He even shared some of his famous mixes that got us to buy a few more jars. You get to choose 6 samples from a list but I definitely recommend trying the banana split and anything else they suggest.
My husband and I like this moonshine much better than Ol Smoky. The atmosphere is lighter and a lot more fun. It was definitely a much better experience than we've previously had at other places. Plus the tasting is free 😉 I didn't catch the other gentleman's name, but he was great at helping us get our items and making sure we got the right ones to mix and make unique flavor concoctions

Come here for a great time.

By Tony L |

Frankie in the wine section and Scott in the moonshine section were excellent. Made the tasting a great and fun experience.
Paul did a great job explaining how to make moonshine, starting from the mash bill to the end product.

Adult fun

We lucked up on this nice spot. The service was awesome and Paul was very informative, and great conversation. The moonshine tasting was fun and fantastic. We will definitely be back.

Scotts the man!

By Dee L |

Scott was the nicest funniest guy! Very thoughtful and knowledgeable- we really enjoyed out experience and can't wait to come back!

Very fun distillery for sampling moonshine!

By Miriam S |

This is my favorite distillery in the Pigeon Forge area. There is an interesting variety of moonshines that you can sample, and the staff is very friendly. I had samples with Allison and Melissa pouring, and they very friendly and helpful! Don't visit this area without stopping by Tennessee Shine! Best moonshine for me was Jalapeno Cornbread moonshine--took a bottle home as my souvenir of my visit! Yum!

Best shine in Pigeon Forge !!

By David S |

These people are awesome. Paul is so knowledgeable about making the shine. Wild Bill is a funny and great bartender.

Wine tasting

By Coastal10210999543 |

J$ was great! He did his first wine tasting with us and it was a really good experience. Awesome time.

Super nice people! Best location to go to

By Ashleigh H |

Decided to come here instead of the location in downtown gatlinburg. Very pleased everyone was super nice. Paul was great to talk to was very informative and kind. Will definitely visit this location again.

we did the moonshine tastings every single day that we were down there and then followed up with the wine tastings!!!

By Morgan W |

Wild Bill and big sexy are the best people you could ever run across. I definitely recommend going to see them on your trip down!! The tastings are amazing and just all around atmosphere is great!!

Memorable Valentine's Day

By Leanne M |

My boyfriend and I visited here on Valentine's Day as part of a trip he planned for us. He had been here before and told me how amazing the Moonshine was so I was anxious to try it for the first time. Bubba did our tasting and he was so kind, so much fun and so knowledgeable about the Moonshine. Of course they both were laughing at me and the faces I made when I was tasting it for the first time. He had us laughing and made our tasting so memorable. He gave us great suggestions of what we could mix with the different flavors. Of course we had to buy some to take home.

Family vacation

By Michelle L |

Yesterday we visited the Tennessee Shine company and we got to see Bubba. He was entertaining and made it a truly fun experience. We had lots of laughs and plan on going again.

So fun and a great experience!

By lizzie h |

Such a great experience! Scott and Shanna were amazing and provided us with an excellence experience! They were very friendly, we will definitely be coming back!

Fun guy to serve!

By Dakota W |

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ You made my Bachelorette party awesome! Love your attitude & the vibe you put off for your customers!

The best

By Matthew F |

Outstanding. If you are on a moonshine journey make sure to stop here. Kind folks. Katrina and BJ made us feel very welcome and gave all the southern hospitality. 10 outta 10 would recommend.

Best moonshine tasting ever

By Lyndsey W |

Worm was so funny and great and gave awesome recommendations. I’ve been to all the moonshine tastings and this by far was my favorite I will definitely be back.

Visiting

By Jacob C |

Paul was an awesome dude! Really enjoyed talking with him about moonshine. We really enjoyed our visit.

Go for the experience.

By Kelly H |

You have to go to Tennessee Shine Co. to get their moonshine because they are blowing up, BUT we didn’t like their moonshine as much as Junction 35. To be fair, we may have been moonshined out by the time we got there! Haha We were on a moonshine tour.
The wines are all sweet EXCEPT for two wines but this is the VERY first time I ever liked a wine slushy! The peach wine slushy is excellent & I only drink red wine. Stop and check it out for the experience.

Authentic moonshine

By Porcelin S |

Bubba and Madison did us right! We came out to Pigeon ford and found ourselves looking for authentic moonshine and he presented the most authentic moonshine I have ever tasted!

Awesome atmosphere!

By Kaelyn S |

Bubba is the BEST!! Highly recommend going in for a tasting with him! He will have you laughing the entire time! Great customer service!! Moonshine tasting was delicious try the pickles 😉

Worth every penny

By Nailtech94 |

Wonderful experience with Jen. All the hosts were wonderful. Dave at junction 35, Mitchell, Allison and Paul at the Shone co were all wonderful and knowledgeable. Wonderful experience and worth it!

Wonderful experience!

By Bksc2018 |

Britt in absolutely amazing!! Turned my non-wine husband into a wine guy!! Y’all need more of Britt!

Great informative experience

By Katy L |

We had a great time wine and moonshine tasting with Renee Wild Bill and Paul. These three made the experience not just about the tasting, but about the *entertainment and education* too.

Renee shared some wonderful wine and history of the area. .Wild Bill had us in stitches with his quick wit and hilarious commentary, and Paul added fascinating facts that made us really appreciate the craftsmanship behind each flavor.

The moonshine itself? Great variety with something for everyone, from smooth sippers to bold, unique blends. But what really made it memorable was the lively atmosphere and how engaging and fun the hosts were.

If you're looking for more than just a tasting – if you want a fun, informative, and all-around great time – don't miss this one. Hats off to Renee, Wild Bill, and Paul for making it a highlight of our

Bunch of Couples trip

By Charlie |

The staff at Tennessee Shine Company are very friendly and we enjoyed our visit tasting all the different shines. Bubba is always fun.

Awesome

By Crystal K |

Wild Bill is awesome. The moonshine is nice and smooth. Best moonshine in the smokies and Wild Bill keeps you entertained through the whole tasting experience.

From just ok to great!

By Michelle G |

Love to visit Tennessee Shine! My family and I come to Pigeon Forge often and always stop in. A little saddened that the old bartender wasn't there. He really put on a show and made it enjoyable. This time the atmosphere felt very corporate operated instead of just down home people loving what they do. I will say that Paul was very down home and genuine. He talked us through the process of how the shine is made and how the still processes the mash from beginning to end. Even offered to take our picture for us. He made us feel like we had known him forever. I tip my hat to you Paul! Stay genuine! Hope to see you again friend!

Tennessee Shine Co. - Best in Pigeon Forge

By GSN B |

Tastings would better be described as pairings. The only moonshine tasting business in Pigeon Forge that actually pairs the different drinks together to open your tastebuds to the possibilities of their products. Individually, each shine is smooth and easy to drink. As amazing as the tasting experience is it remains secondary to their bartenders. Bubba is not only entertaining but knowledgeable of processing, blends and instructions on creating cocktails on your own. Tennessee Shine Co. has the best moonshine, wine and service in Pigeon Forge.

Awssome

By Nic B |

Bubba and Paul were awesome and shared tons of knowledge. Bubba it was awesome chatting with man, this is Nic from Texas.

Fantastic Server

By Nathaniel W |

Scott was the most amazingest bar tended we’ve ever had. Come see him ASAP. Best drinks we had mixed in the area. Get that shine yall

Awesome moonshine tasting!!

By Michelle C |

Bubba was awesome!! He is hilarious and the main reason we keep coming back to see him and buy from whatever store he is at!!

Great Experience

By Tammy Lee J |

J$ was absolutely amazing and very friendly. Bubba was the best bartender at any of the Shine CO’s we went to. He is so funny and kept us very entertained.

Best Wine & Shine in TN! Tell Big Sexy, Stacie sent you!

By Stacie J |

Tennesse Shine Co. was one of the stops on our moonshine and wine tasting tour. I'm so glad it was! We had the proud honor to meet Big Sexy! Not only did he let us taste the best wines and hot toddy in Tennessee but he is absolutely the nicest and friendliest person! He had us laughing and smiling from ear to ear during our tasting. His presentation showed that he loves what he does, he cares about his business and most importantly his customers!

We also took part in the moonshine tasting. Wild Bill was awesome! He served us moonshine mixtures that had us not knowing it was moonshine it was so good!! The moonshine choices were top notch!! Before we left Tennessee, we came back to the store 2 more times buying items for family and friends. Every person I ran into on the trip I sent to Tennessee Shine Co.! From the tastings to the awesome staff that helped us find everything we were looking for, I highly recommend! You will not be disappointed!!

Bubba’s Place

By Joe G |

Incredible variety and high end products! Best in town hands down! Bubba was hilarious and very personable. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Pigeon Forge.

Mr Paul showed us how the moonshine making process works, really good guy I would definitely go check him out and how they make their shine.

A must stop!

By Deborah W |

Bubba made our vacation! Don't miss this spot, they have the best selection of moonshine and everything was beyond delicious!

Don't pass this up

By Phyllis M |

Oh what fun! Jayson with a Y was the best taste master ever. Funny, knowledgeable, he expertly poured samples of this company's fantastic moonshine. The store displays were organized and clean. You have to put this place on your list.

Britt was good!

By Wanderer22221668636 |

Britt was a great bartender. He handled our large family with ease and had great jokes! He was very professional too.

Fabulous tasting!

By sarlog |

Bubba was awesome and very entertaining! The Moonshine was fantastic, all the flavors were amazing! We also tried the wine and the wine slush was delicious!

Kindness and Shine!

By Michael L |

Scott was our bartender and he was knowledgeable and patient as we made selections to taste. Some of his suggestions helped us to decode what to purchase.

Michelie S. was so kind to entertain our energetic little girl as we got our experince started. She even gave her a little gift for being so cute!

It was really wonderful to be made tl feel a family environment as we shopped!

Brubba tasting

By Natalie P |

Bubba was amazing! We come every time to see him. He make the tasting so fun and entertaining. He is hilarious. We love Tennessee shine. It’s the best in the area. Recommend Bubba to everyone.

Great place and people

By Meyeralaskan1 |

Great place and great atmosphere. Bubba was great. We were swinging through on our way to Lexington. Glad we stopped in for some early morning tasting

Best Shine Tasting

By Christen R |

We visit the area every year and Tennessee Shine Co. is our favorite distillery to go to! Bubba is the best bartender and makes the experience so much more fun with his sense of humor and the little drink samples he puts together!

Great experience

By Alan P |

Great service from the bartender. Bartender was very knowledgeable. The moonshine was good mixed with different moonshine

Debbie is Amazing!!

By Dawn B |

Debbie was an amazing bartender for us while we tried all of the original 6 wines that were available. She taught us some things we didn't know and she was just perfect, all the way around...much better than Big Sexy. We like him too, but she was much more personable.

A visit to Tennessee Shine Co. is a must when you’re in Pigeon Forge!

By ErinN31 |

Highly recommend Tennessee Shine Co.! The staff were incredibly sweet & welcoming! I caught one of their names… Regina! There was another sweet gal who helped us while we tasted the moonshine & a young gentleman who helped us check out. What a great experience! Highly recommend! Bonus: You don’t have to search or pay for parking! The Nanner Puddin’ moonshine + the choco moo moonshine= perfection! 🍌🤎🐮 YUM! The wine is also delicious!

Tennessee shine visit

By Sean K |

Tamilee is amazing. Such a fun time on our anniversary trip!! She was so entertaining and made the experience great. Try the wine and shine!

Moonshine With Bubba!

By Mercedes G |

Just did the best Moonshine tasting with the one and only Bubba! If you don't like Moonshine you will after spending time with Bubba. Bubba can make you pretty much any flavor you can think of! Thanks for a great time Bubba!

Delicious wines sweet to dry

By Tommie B |

Had an awesome taste experience with Britt! Will visit again. A flavor for all palates. Go by and take a sip

Tennessee Shine Company

By Jessica F |

Paul at Tennessee Shine Company provided an excellent guide and explanation about moon shine and the process of making moonshine.

Great Booze, Great Time, Great People, Great Deals, Great Service!

By Steffanie G |

My husband and I visit Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg frequently from Michigan. We ALWAYS stop by Tennessee Shine to stock up because it’s our favorite. The 6 minis deal is a great way to get more flavors (because they are all good) instead of buying a jar. We also love the jar deal which is great if we know it will be awhile before we visit. We don’t just love their booze, but they also have great deals and service. Tennessee Shine’s has a great selection of clothes, shotglasses, hats, etc. Scott at the Teaster location, was our bartender on our trips in December ‘23 and February ‘24 and he was great! We also love Pickle and were so sad when he left the Teaster location. We’ve tried visiting the Sevierville location specifically because of him, but haven’t caught him yet.

Hilarious and tasty

By Coastal13129560424 |

Absolutely freaking Amazing! Bubba needs to be a comedian. 100% recommend stopping by to see him and taste some shine while you're at it!

Awesome place

By S p |

We had a great experience! Everyone was very nice and extremely helpful! Britt and Gabriel were awesome!!! Everything we sampled was great and better than other local moonshine tastings. We will definitely return whenever we can!!!!! Thank you for such a great time!!!!

Tennessee Shine Co. Pigeon Forge

By Nicole H |

Just did a tasting here with Bubba. He is the absolute best! I highly recommend this place. Will be coming back the next time we’re in Pigeon Forge. 10/10

Best thing to do hands down

By Kelly H |

We have been coming to Tennessee Shine every year for the past 3 years on the anniversary of my dad passing and have never had a bad time. Quite frankly it is our favorite thing to do in Pigeon Forge and not just for the moonshine, I mean dont get me wrong the moonshine is THE best tasting you will come across hands down, BUT it's the people. They are some of the most fun and genuinely heart warming people you'll ever come across. Today we had the pleasure of meeting Bubba and his manager Brittany and once again we were not let down. Bubba was one of the funniest with his entertaining jokes and whimsical concoctions but beyond that he had a way of making you feel like you were home. Brittany was so sweet and helpful and both went above and beyond to be sure we had the best day ever on this what should have been one of our hardest. I can't thank you both enough. We seem to live in a world these days where simple hospitality doesn't exist and no one wants to work ,yet alone with a smile and I can't tell how refreshing it was to get both. If you want the best moonshine check out Tennessee Shine....if you want to have the best day spend some of it with Bubba and Brittany. You won't be disappointed! Until we are "home" again next year 😘

Moonshine tasting at its finest!

By Amber F |

The staff is friendly and Worm was incredible! He brought the whole experience together! There are a lot of moonshine places in the area and XXX is always our favorite!

Moonshine tasting

Bubba is the man! Best moonshine bartender in Tennessee. Funny jokes and good company. Never fails to make you laugh and smile. Frankie was awesome!

Britt was knowledgeable and entertaining. We'll definitely come back again the next time around!!!!

Awesome place, so friendly and fine shine

Wife went in and were treated as friends. Paul was kind enough to take pictures of us with still. Love to be able to taste before buying.

Fun! Must try with Bubba!!!

By Lyn P |

We did a tasting with Bubba. He was fun!!! Request a tasting with him, he'll treat you right! They have a relaxing atmosphere and are welcoming

Exploring Tennessee Shine Company

By Phillip C |

Paul was very knowledgeable on the production process and explained the process very well. BJ was a hoot at the tasting area. Overall there were flavors that were very creative and were good. Jalapeño cornbread and bread and butter pickles were great! A very down home feel that you're made to feel like part of the family.

Britt was great!

By Nikki C |

Love the atmosphere of the Tennessee Shine Co. So welcoming and fun. We sampled wines with Britt and he was very knowledgeable and funny.

Britt is a true A+++

By Kim F |

Britt was the BEST!!! Highly recommend the wine tasting when he is there! Had to get me a whole case to take back to West TN!

Bubba!!!

By John D |

Best entertainment in pigeon forge!!! Bubba gives a fun, crass, entertaining time, tending behind the bar! A must experience!

Experience is less crowded than the other distilleries

By Chad M |

First time visiting Tennessee Shine Co. we have been to most of the other distilleries in the area. The people were absolutely amazing. The drinks were sampled along with some really delicious mixes of their drinks. Paul was working in the back on the still, where we got a great explanation of how the process worked, and how much he could produce in a day on his small still. Would definitely recommend a visit for anyone in the Pigeon Forge area.

Absolute Perfection!

By Zelda |

Ok seriously, everyone needs to come here when they visit pigeon forge. The bourbon whiskey was so good that as a strict wine drinker I bought a bottle, in addition to their spiced rum and moonshine. The staff was also amazing and down to earth which made for such an awesome and enjoyable experience with family-we had a blast and lots of laughs. We are already planning to come back to pigeon forge next year and this place is in our top five places to revisit! Do yourselves a favor and go here and buy up all their bourbon whiskey!!! You won’t regret it!! I’m even writing this review with a glass of their incredible peach bourbon by my side.

So fun, always a good time! Pigeon forge is the best;

By Brenda L |

Awesome time with Shana, Heidi, j and Scott. Can't ever get enough of Tennesee shine companys atmosphere!!! We love the love bug!

It was great and I loved everytime I was there!

By Shannon C |

Britt was very amazing and helped me with everything I bought ❤️! I just loved his service! Very friendly!

Highly recommend!

By Anne P |

This was our last stop after a day of drizzly sightseeing and we are so glad we went. BJ was hilarious and set us up with a good array of samples, which we completely enjoyed. All employees were friendly and helpful....thank you for the last incredible sample of mulled cider on our way out!!

Britt

By Zack M |

Britt is awesome! He made the experience very fun and easy! I would 100 percent come back ! He did a great job!

Great shine, amazing people

By jonathan c |

All the shine we tasted was really good. We have been here before and loved the atmosphere and friendliness of all the employees. This trip was the same. Everyone was awesome. Big shout out to Pual, thanks for showing us around the still, and for the great conversation and stories.
Thank yall!, Jon and Aleycia

Moonshine tasting

By Haley C |

We had a blast here. Bubba did our moonshine tasting and was so fun. We also did the wine tasting that was great. The staff makes you feel right at home.

Amazing!

By Jessica F |

This place is amazing! There are so many flavors to choose from, and we loved them all! Try the new lemon flavor. You won't regret it! And they are so friendly here. We came back twice during our week of vacation.

Do NOT let Red serve you!

By Victoria Y |

My family and I visited TN Shine in Gatlinburg this previous weekend to do a moonshine tasting. I was hoping to do a tasting with a guy named Bubba that had been referenced to me by my clientele and family, I also saw so many good reviews on him and was looking forward to that prestigious experience. Needless to say we were taken into a separate room to do our tasting with a lady named Red. Every other word out of this girl's mouth was so foul I couldn't believe it. She was saying God D**n and F*ck every other word. My husband and I had our little kids with us and we were just beside ourselves. I own my own business and I'm just thinking what kind of establishment employs people of this caliber and lets their employees engage in such foul language especially in front of small children. My husband and I were so sickened by the way Red talked that it put a real bad taste in our mouths when it comes to TN Shine Co. The worst part is that their moonshine was pretty good. As a business owner myself, I really think the owner of this establishment needs to a little more cautious about who they employ in their store. Employees of a business represent the owners name and product. Sadly to say, my family and I will not be back to TN Shine due to the obscene language and embarrassment that myself, my husband, and our kids had to endure. Reds low class acts of such obtrusive and vulgar language really dampers the environment of what should be, people having a good time.

Amazing

By Denise W |

Amazing experience at TN Shine. Christina and Scott were just so friendly and amazing. We do do tastings all the time but we would rather meet ppl like this anyway. Really made the experience. Scott is soooo funny and the wine with Christina was amazing. Come see them for thes best time in Pigeon

Best shine place in the area

By Alyssa H |

This place was amazing! Both the wine tasting and the moonshine tasting were amazing! Great priced. The staff was amazing, big sexy (Glenn) even recommend a mountain coaster to us (pigeon forge racing coaster) and we had an amazing time! We will definitely be coming back every time we come down here!

Family fun

By Regina D |

Had such a great time with Scotty the body, Shana banana, Sierra, and Frankie. Such a wonderful atmosphere. They go above and beyond for their customers. We definitely feel like family every time we walk in.

Went with my brother; the employee BUBBA! Was hilarious! The big baddy’s taste like pappy van winkle! 10/10

TEN out of TENnessee Shine Co

By Erin K |

My husband & I went and we were treated like royalty. Everyone (Heidi, Hayley, worm, Jayson, & Rhonda) were nothing short of wonderful! They ensured we were getting the biggest bang for our buck and that we had a top notch experience. We appreciated the atmosphere!

💙Bubba💙

By Destiney O |

The experience was second to none! 💙Bubba💙 made everything so much fun. We initially went in for the first time to see what they had to offer but then 💙Bubba💙 stepped in! We ended up spending more than what we planned because of him being such a great mixologist we bought all kinds! Bubba should be the ambassador of the Tennessee Shine Co for commercials, billboards/ads etc. he would turn your profit tenfold! Literally an exceptional experience for my husband & I. The man that rang us up helped us carry what we purchased to our truck as well (I’m sad I didn’t get his name because he was so kind as well). Literally a sensational experience that I would recommend every single time! 💙Bubba💙 I’ll be your agent!🩷

Bubba was amazing!

By Sheila B |

My husband and I have been to the Gatlinburg location multiple times, but after seeing that there was Pigeon Forge location too, we decided to check it out and we’re glad we did! Bubba was awesome! We were there during a slow time, so it was just us at the tasting, but Bubba was still as entertaining as if he had a room full of people there instead of just us two. The woman who checked us out was super sweet too! We’ll definitely be back to this location!

Awesome place! We will return!

By Keith B |

This place is top notch. All the staff were amazing! From the 2 ladies at the counter, to J$$$, to Paul talking us thru the shine making process, and to Bubba, the best shine sample tender ever!

Awesome place to buy from

THE BEST PLACE TO STOP

By Alison D |

BU was incredible! I highly recommend you go taste with him and tip him well!! He was so worth stopping by! Made the end of my trip to Tennessee!

Always Happier after I've visited y'all! 🥃

By Linda S |

The ONLY place we go for Shine & Whiskeys! They are the Best! Love the vibe there and they even have Elev8te cannabis in the building now! Why go anywhere else? Shout out to Heidi on the sales floor, Scott the mixologist and Casey Treat with Elev8te! See y'all again hopefully sooner than later! 🫶

Bubba is the best!

By Kaveena J |

As soon as we flew into TN we made sure to stop by and do a moonshine tasting. Bubba made the whole experience awesome! Kept us laughing during the entire tasting. Will definitely be back.

Moonshine Tasting with Bubba

By Dana F |

Bubba is the BEST! He mixed tastings for us and they were all great. He definitely knows what he’s doing and has a great attitude that made our experience fun. We can’t wait to try all the Moonshine we bought today.

Great time learning how to make moonshine and sampling

By Earl M |

We had an amazing time with Paul and all of the people that work there. He showed my husband everything there was to making moonshine. My husband was on cloud 9!! We his great time sampling an learning about making moonshine!!

Best moonshine place!

By Stephanie E |

Nicest staff and great moonshine tasting! Bubba was wonderful and kept me laughing! :) Tennessee Shine Company is our first stop when we come to Pigeon Forge.

Very entertaining and gracious host

By James L |

We really enjoyed our time with Britt. He was very entertaining and he was able to answer our questions. We had a great time and we look forward to our next visit. Everyone in the store was a gracious host and made us feel very welcome.

Must do :)

By Reagan P |

Ohhhh Bubba! He gave us plenty to taste and a lot of laughs. He shared some of his life story, moonshine journey, and educated us. Go in with an open mind and heart (and mouth) and you’re sure to have an unforgettable experience.

A cut above the rest

By Jeremy B |

A cut above the rest! The wife and I do a fair bit of travelling, and always stop at the local breweries and distilleries we encounter along the way. We go in with the expectation that all are chasing our favorites that we have found. And most are! Tennessee shine, however, flipped the script on all of that. Easily the best moonshine experience we've had to date. All of the moonshine we tried on the tasting were fantastic! We left with several jars and a gift flask,( much more than we anticipated going in) and now are certain we will be going back at some point to buy the flavors that haven't made it to our local liqour store yet. Highly recommended!

Bubba is the BEST

By Michelle F |

Bubba was awesome!!! Great entertainment and very friendly. Answered all my questions and was a great help!!! Have plans to come back again when he is working!!!

Awesome Place!

By Nicole R |

Bubba is the greatest!!! He puts on a great show and is hilarious. Will be coming next year. The moonshine is delicious and the bloody mary recipe is amazing :) Thank you!!

Bubba made this an amazing tasting ! 150% recommend anytime you're in the area. Stop in and give them a try. He will mix up some amazing flavors for you to try!

A great place to check out!

By Marie |

Paul was amazing! He let us try all the shines we were interested in. Definitely a great stop! Everything we tried was really tasty!

Loved it, great taste!

By Samantha G |

Wild Bill was pouring, and he is raunchy and hilarious. Did the VIP tour with 14 samples (bourbon & moonshine) for $8, totally worth it. Taste was much better than other place we went in The Island. Absolutely nothing for kids to do nor place for them to play outside, so keep it in mind if you're toting kiddos.

10/10 experience!

By Shelby L |

Amazing!! The staff were so friendly and helpful!! We had Scott help us and he was the best and very knowledgeable about all the drinks!!! The store is so neat and organized! 10/10 highly recommend stopping by on your next trip!!!

It's all about Bubba!

By Compass05810033893 |

Bubba is the only reason I go to Tennessee Shine! I follow him to which ever store he is bartending. He knows his stuff, he has the best personality and you just relax and enjoy the experience. Without Bubba there is no Tennessee Shine!

By Breonna S |

My family and I go to Gatlinburg every other year, but this was our first year participating in a tasting at Tennessee Shine in Pigeon Forge. We did a wine tasting with Britt, who was sooo friendly, informative, and helpful! We also did a moonshine tasting with TJ and Gabriel. I had such a good time with TJ that I brought more family back, but this time Gabriel was on duty! We laughed and had such a good time...and of course walked out with boxes of moonshine and wine! haha

Big Sexy, Paul, and Wild Bill made our time so memorable! Their recommendations and tastings were what made our trip great! Our favorite of the tastings was the Hot Wine and the Blue Houdini

Best tasting and service experience!

By Molly D |

We went here because we wanted to taste as much of the different distilleries as we could. Who knew we would end up with a new favorite?! Bubba behind the bar was amazing and is now my new favorite ‘shine slinger in the area! Anything we wanted to taste, he made it happen! Everyone in the store was so sweet and answered all the questions we had! Definitely a must stop!

Great time!

By Lindsey W |

Bubba was so fun and exceeded our expectations. Went overboard and let us try what we wanted to. We'll be coming back for sure.

It was the best

By Jessica E |

This is an amazing stop to try moonshine and learn how it’s made! The owner and customer service is outstanding. I’m so glad we found this hidden gem behind The Old Mill! We will be coming back!

Great experience!

By Caramon S |

Went to Tennessee Shine Co for my 21st birthday 12/22! The staff was exceptional. Scott was our “moonshine mixologist”was very knowledgeable about all the moonshines gave us some of his secret recipes and let us try flavors of our choice. The environment in there is very welcoming and all of the staff were very friendly. We were also given a tour of the still in the back while they were making moonshine. Go check this place out it is awesome! 10 out of 10.

A Must to Visit

By TAUser_08242018 |

Absolutely fun and I recommend highly. Did the shine tasting. It was amazing. Very large selection to choose from. Did a complimentary wine tasting and met Big Sexy! Friendly, funny and very knowledgeable. We got our picture with him, he’s famous! We had a strawberry shine slushy with cotton candy in it. Sooo delicious agree refills for the day.

Great shine and a great time!

Paul was in back of the store running a small batch run on the display still. Ended up hanging out for about a hour just listening and learning. It was a great experience will be returning

Recipes included.

By Lisa S |

We walked in looking for a secret Santa gift, Justin who was extremely personable helped us decide what we were looking for. He included if you mix this and that it tastes like such. Made us go yeah that would be awesome. No high pressure sales, just a super friendly store. I highly recommend this store for your moonshine purchase.

By Morgan G |

Bubba was hilarious and knew all there is to know about moonshine! The atmosphere was fun and inviting! There was a variety of moonshine flavors to make everyone happy!

Bubba!

By Aj W |

We went in for a tasting, and that’s when we knew we were in for a crazy good time, as we approached the bar there in all his bib overall glory was the man they call bubba! One word can describe bubba…. Insane!

Bubba was the classic American moonshine tasting extraordinaire! If you didn’t enjoy this time, you just can’t appreciate dirty nuts (almond joy).
Way to go Bubby, you’re the reason we love Tennessee!

Madison and Frankie were head on at explaining what each moonshine/wine would taste like. The store is well organized and clean. Go for the blood Mary with the pickle juice And ask Frankie about the peach wine.

Best Moonshine EVER!

By Kathleen J |

We found an awesome moonshine distillery in the Tennessee Shine Company! Great Shine, helpful emplyees, and worth the stop. Love the blackberry and jalapeño cornbread shine. Oh, don't forget the wines! Brandon and Karen helped us - and a wonderful lady in the wines section. Knowledgeable, helpful and so friendly!!!

Fantastic, thank you so much team at Tennessee Shine Co.

By Cameron C |

Fantastic experience! Bubba and his son were the ones who greeted us initially. They were super friendly and went above and beyond the whole time while we were there. Our great experience didn't stop with them, while we were doing the tasting the two ladies at the cash register went above and beyond by talking with our kids and getting them moonpies and just making sure the kids weren't bored and that they were having just as much fun as we were.

Thank you so much to everyone on the team!

Moonshine Tasting

By Noah J |

Bubba gave us the best experience while in Pigeon Forge. Constant jokes and cracking up, while putting together some of the best moonshine concoctions I’ve ever had. Would 100% recommend to anyone. He is genuine and loves what he does, but also makes sure you’re comfortable and gets you whatever you need. A MUST STOP IF IN PIGEON FORGE!

Love Tennessee Shine

By msgsc |

We really like Tennessee Shine, the people are great. Very friendly and helpful. We had J$ as our shine guy. So much fun, he was helpful, friendly and was a lot of fun. Great place. Highly recommend

Amazing time

By terri t |

Did a tasting experience with Worm. He was very knowledgeable and fun. D talked us into purchasing two kinds of pickles instead of one but they are both worth it. Good atmosphere, friendly staff.

Best place to buy moonshine with the best bartenders

By Tyler L |

Brian was our bartender again! We love Brian and he always makes us laugh, has great recommendations for flavors and always makes the visit a great experience! He even remembered me and I'm sure that's hard sometimes depending on how many customers come in there every day. Always make 1 visit to this location every time we are in town on vacation, sometimes twice. Thank you Brian and thank you Shine Co.!
