The 2023 Impact Hot Prospect Brands will be recognized in the September 1 and 15 Impact Global Newsletter, as well as the October issue of Market Watch. The criteria for this recognition include depletions of at least 50,000 cases but not over 200,000 cases in 2023, at least 15% growth in 2023 and consistent growth in 2021 and 2022.

"It is an immense honor for Ole Smoky to be named a Hot Prospect Brand by M. Shanken Communications,” said Robert Hall, CEO, Ole Smoky Distillery. “This accolade reflects the hard work and passion of our team. We strive to create unique, high quality and delicious products, and it’s incredibly gratifying to see consumers’ enthusiasm when we bring these products to market.”

Ole Smoky first launched its moonshine creams in 2014 with Mountain Java, which is a coffee cream. Since that time the company has created and tested over twenty other cream flavors including the 2021 launch of Banana Pudding Cream and the White Chocolate Strawberry Cream which quickly became fan favorites. Initially, both flavors were sold exclusively at Ole Smoky’s Distilleries in Tennessee, but due to overwhelming consumer demand, the White Chocolate Strawberry Cream and Banana Pudding Cream are now available at liquor stores across the country. Both flavors offer a dessert-like experience that's uncommon in the beverage alcohol category and have a creamy consistency that makes them easy to drink. Since then, the cream-based moonshine line has grown to six flavors available in year-round wholesale distribution, including Butter Pecan, Orange Shinesicle and Key Lime Pie. The creamy moonshine flavors mark a unique addition to Ole Smoky’s portfolio and can be enjoyed, straight as a dessert, on the rocks, added to coffee or mixed into cocktails.

Ole Smoky’s Moonshine Minis are available in 50ML bottles with a variety of flavors, perfect for gifting, traveling, and sampling. The Moonshine Minis provides consumers with the convenience of smaller bottles and the opportunity to try multiple flavors, much like the moonshine and whiskey tasting experiences offered at the Ole Smoky Distilleries in Tennessee. The attractive jar is even used by many consumers for storing foods or other products after the moonshine has been enjoyed. The Moonshine Minis can be found across the United States in liquor stores and other locations that typically sell spirits.

As a large, growing, diversified & innovative distiller with craft authenticity, Ole Smoky Distillery is also the No. 1 selling moonshine brand in the world. According to on-premise traffic counters, Ole Smoky Distilleries are the most visited distilleries in the world, with the four Tennessee distillery destinations welcoming more than 5 million visitors in 2023.
