Hank Williams, Jr. marketed Popcorns recipe for quite a time- until Jack Daniels slapped him down for having a rectangular bottle with a black label
Making one’s own properly is a popular hobby, discretely- as most do not know that making distilled spirits (not wine or beer for personal consumption to 80 gallons) of any kind is still a federal crime. It assumes one would be selling it- which is also a federal crime without a license to do so.
Example: “Can’t Catch” Call’s family in Wilkesboro, NC now has a licensed spirits distillery making the family recipe, and tours of the facility.
Everyone knows the feds killed Popcorn (he killed himself vs a ridiculous late in life sentence to FedPen). Hopefully this Sutton isn’t ripping off from a fake recipe. It is impossible to prove it’s his, though.

In the final years of his legendary life, Popcorn Sutton put his wife up on a pedestal And on the opposite end, we have CornPop who was a bad dude and wanted to take Brave Joe down from his pedestal and rub the blond hair on his legs.

Old joke from way back— so and so’s joint “likker in the front, poker in the back”. Like 50 years ago.

Likker? I don’t even know her! Likker? Likker yourself, you brought her.

No, Joe. Popcorn, not Cornpop.
Your Cornpop fantasy figure did not create this special
Likker, so stop lying.

I know people who are friends of Pam Sutton. This is as legit a Popcorn Sutton product as there’s ever apt to be. Shes a really fine lady. Really appreciates all the fans that her late husband has gained.

I believe that bust was caught on dashcam.
Don’t have time to look for it though.

It was fascinating watching the program where he put everything together to make the moonshine. You could tell he had made it for years as he made it look so easy.

All liquor is alcohol and water or flavored alcohol and water.

If it’s legal, it ain’t moonshine. Moonshine is 120+ proof. This will be watered down to 80 proof. Just another run of the mill liquor.

This is as legit a Popcorn Sutton product as there’s ever apt to be.Kinda feel like Popcorn would be pi$$ed. I just cannot call this a Popcorn Sutton product. It has his name, but that's it.
