It's #NationalMoonshineDay! In honor of the holiday, we've found five moonshine distilleries across Virginia that are worth checking out. DYK that Franklin County was once known as the "Moonshine Capital of the World"? That's right! Virginia had a stronghold in the illegal moonshine business back in the day during the Prohibition era. In more modern times, moonshine has become legal, and has made a huge comeback in the industry. Some notable moonshinin' Virginians include the Bondurant Boys, who were known as "rumrunners" in Franklin County back in the 1930s. The business is still in the family today in Chase City! . . . . . #vamoonshine #exploreva #loveva #moonshine #virginia #franklinva #vahistory
