Missouri’s certainly home to plenty of hidden gems – from the crystal clear water at Bennett Spring State Park to wild buffalo meandering through Prairie State Park. And, even if you’ve lived here your whole life and think you’ve seen it all, you’re sure to uncover another hidden gem when you least expect it. Like this distillery tucked in the Ozark Mountains. Next time you’re on the hunt for something fun and unique to do, consider a visit to this quaint moonshine tasting room in Missouri.
Pull out the ole bucket list! And, add Copper Run Distillery, “the first legal distillery in the Ozark Mountains since prohibition ended in 1933.”

Order from a selection of moonshine, such as the Ozark Mountain Moonshine, an 80-proof, un-aged whiskey, and Overproof Ozark Mountain Moonshine.

Or, perhaps you’re in the mood for a bloody Mary? Then, treat yourself to a Moonshine Mary, a Bloody Mary mixed with Copper Run Moonshine. Pair your drink with a snack, like the chips and salsa or a sausage and cheese plate.
