    My favorite moonshine place in Gatlinburg
    Peyton was so energetic during our tasting! She had our group feeling like a team at the end. We even met people from Knoxville during our tasting that we hung out with later because of the fun atmosphere she created. Sugarlands is by far my favorite place in Gatlinburg.
    When it comes to sampling ‘shine, Peyton is one of the best! Thanks so much for stopping by to sip with us, and for sharing your experience. It makes our day to read your kind words! We hope you'll be back again soon! #SipWisely

    Must do!!
    I'm not a big moonshine drinker but like to sample things. $5 per person for like 8-10 samples. The person we had , Thomas, was hilarious! We ended up buying three jars and a shirt. Go visit if you are in the area!
    Sampling our spirits with Thomas is a great time! Thank you for your kind words and for visiting our distillery. Sips Up! #SipWisely

    Cheap Moonshine tasting.
    Many tasting facilities on the Park Way. From wine to moonshine to whiskey. Wine tastings were generally free. The others were $5 but gave you $5 coupons to buy merchandise. Sugarlands allowed you to use all at one time and combinable with the 10% discount coupons in the coupon books found everywhere. Great tasting of 13 different flavored moonshines. Since they have way more than 13, they change the tasting menu. This was definitely a fun experience with Ian.

    Try the Sugarlands Shine Tastings!
    Our tasting by JT was entertaining and poetic. The 13 samples were a great variety of flavors. The multiple bottle specials and unlimited stackable $5 off wristbands you get with a tasting makes the value outstanding. Cocktails are available in the back to enjoy even more moonshine.
    Sampling our spirits with JT is a great time! Thank you for your kind words and for visiting our distillery. Sips Up! #SipWisely

    Sugarland is a blast to visit ! Abby served us and she had a great sense of humor and made it fun !!! The selection of whiskey and moonshine was great ! I highly recommend the root beer moonshine and the peach cocktails they sell !

    Had a blast with Abby!!
    We've done many tastings but this was absolutely the best ever thanks to Abby. She was hysterical and had us laughing, and drinking, the entire time. We applied our tasting fee as credit toward our purchases. We'll be back to see you Abby! Thanks for a fun visit.
    Thank you for including Sugarlands Distilling Company on your places to visit list! We are delighted to hear that Abby kept you entertained; he/she is a hoot. We hope to see you on your next visit to Gatlinburg! Sips Up! #SipWisely

    Great moonshine!
    We really enjoyed the $5.00 tasting. There are 12 different flavors to try. Plus your bartender tells jokes in between tasting. So you get to enjoy some shine and a show. There are so many flavors to choose from. The more you get the better the price. Plus some freebies included. Well worth the time.
    Thanks for stopping by our downtown Gatlinburg distillery and sampling our award-winning spirits. If there was anything we could’ve done to make your visit a 5-Star experience, please email us at info@sugarlands.com to help us continue to improve our distillery experience. We hope to see you again soon! #SipsUp

    Drink and laugh
    Peyton was our server and very entertaining. Everyone was laughing and had the best time. Also the shine is better than the other guy. And the mixed drinks are amazing!! if you think you won’t like moonshine. Just try it. It is not what you think. Great way to start the evening out
    Thanks for visiting our distillery! We are so glad that you had a good time with Peyton and we hope we'll see you back soon for more sips and fun times! Sips Up! #SipWisely

Their Moonshine Tasting was so much fun and a great deal! Only $5 for tasting 9 different types of moonshine and a great explanation of what we were drinking. Their cocktails are also delicious!

Went for some shine tastings, had a blast. Josh was our server, lots of fun, great guy. Love the way they do it here, it is in a circular area, not over crowded like other places. We had a really good time, Josh was a lot of fun,. everyone seemed to have a good time, even not knowing anyone else doing the tastings, everyone was friendly and having fun.

Maddison was great! We always ha e a blast at Sugarlands. Used to be our favorite distillery, but some of our favorite "bartenders" moved on, but we still enjoy Sugarlands. And the legacy moonshine was everything it was supposed to be.
