Next on the spirits tour is Missouri Ridge Distillery, an award-winning, family-owned, small-batch artisan distillery located south of Copper Run (but still north of Branson) featuring Corn and American Single Malt Whiskeys, Single Barrel Bourbon and Howlin’ Hounds Moonshine! They credit delicious water from the Ozark Mountains' limestone base and their time-honored family recipes for the aroma and flavor of their high-quality spirits.

Smith Creek Moonshine

1209 Branson Landing Blvd, Branson, MO 65616

Finally, check out Smith Creek Moonshine at the Branson Landing or Tanger Outlets for the only spots on your spirits tour that only feature moonshine. It’s an experience you don’t want to miss! Smith Creek Moonshine has a tasting bar where you can sample all 12 of their unique moonshine flavors including sweet tea, apple pie, chocolate silk, lemon lime and more. Smith Creek Moonshine also offers a unique menu of gourmet hamburgers that pair perfectly with the exceptional moonshine!
