- www.unctv.org/n... Haywood County, NC resident Cookie Wood knows a thing or two about moonshine. He speaks with UNC-TV reporter/producer Kelly McCullen, in an extended TV interview for UNC-TV's "North Carolina Now" about the distilled spirit, getting caught making it and what he thinks now that moonshine is being legally made in North Carolina. www.unctv.org/n...
Much respect for this man right here. He is the kind of person you want as a neighbor. I saw where someone had commented that he had passed. RIP sir!
Old timers pass tradition on😊
RIP Cookie! I remember you from the Popcorn Sutton film
This guy right here's a legend in his own he was making the same time as popcorn
Popcorns cousin
He and Popcorn are cousins. Popcorn said that Cookie Woods was the one person in the world that he’d give anything he had if Cookie asked him for it.
Popcorn Sutton’s cousin and best friend growing up.
Mr. Wood knows what he's talking about. I've been around several old shine makers that built time for making it BUT like he said, it was to feed their families back then. And it was hard work toting everything back in the bushes where you tried not to be caught. It's still the best thing for a bad cough. Just sip it and don't get hoggish or your head will blow off.
I agree with that
It dont blow your head off what stupid comment .
My grandfather had a small farm in Trap Hill and he used to tell us about moonshiners in the woods behind his farm and the "revenoorers" that hunted for them and destroyed their stills - would have been around 1947 - 1948. My grandfathers name was Charlie Johnson.
My step brother last name is Johnson damm small world you know that family still kicking
My family line goes back to trap hill nc since the early 1800s. My great grandfather left and end up in Reidsville as a Tobacco farmer. Someone found a record of possibly of my 3rd great grandad was arrested and had to pay a fine and someone else paid it for him and got him out of jail.
Good stories on CD, that came with Popcorn Sutton book, done by Suckerpunch productions. Book is great. Great story about Cookies mom, Popcorns aunt
The interviewer was on point with his question!!! Great show you got here come to ohio we shine every night!!! We will give you a great show a how to !! We make gallon by gallon by gallon
It ain't as simple as just paying the tax. There are thousands of pages of Gov regulations you have to follow to make legal liquor. You have to hire lawyers and chemical engineers, then buy thousands of dollars worth of Gov approved equipment. The investment is so high you will never make a dime.
Wow, sounds like bullshit.
we would put a quart of good moonshine in the freezer for 3 days and then bring it out and sip it icy cold and I seen many people who thought they could drink go down after a glass of shine
it's def not something you can be reckless with
Years back I had a floor freezer . That was 6' long about 30" tall and 20 sum inches wide , id take 20 gallon stick it in there for 24 hrs then check it 130/140 proof will have alittle ice on the top bust it out thats water . Then proof it again . You can do that with wine also to rase it up a hair .
@@LUCKYB. you were on gorges CZcams
Why 3 days in a freezer? After a couple hours , it's as cold as it's gonna get
@@goofykid2027 it is very simple 3 days is how long I wanted it in the freezer
Popcorns idol/role model.
it's kinda bitter sweet cause when pop corn put out his documentary he said several times moonshine was dead and gone .. he had no idea the resurgence it would have .. that's the sweet part ..the bitter part he wasn't around to really see it ..
Interviewer asking all the wrong questions
Him and Popcorn are kin. I don't remember how, maybe Popcorn's cousin?
Yes, Cookie Woods mama and Popcorns mama were sisters.
Old timers keeping old ways alive 😊😊😊😊😊.
I wonder who began the reporter cadence like the one this guy is emulating, with those piercing, focused eyes like they're always asking the tough questions.
Popcorns best freind.
Government wants it's extortion fee
I swear I'm related to this guy my last name is Wood and I love likker
Moonshine is watery in my experience. Thats why I like it, goes down the throat smooth jack daniels cuts the fuck out of me. I can sip shine all day if I drink Jack Daniels I wake up in jail explain that to me.
In a way people who do make moonshine do pay taxes cuz they gotta buy the ingredients and pay taxes on that..why the law gotta bother people tryin to make a livin and provide fer their family they made weed legal so whats the difference
Good shine is smooth no burn knock you on your face fast. Good tast run of slow.
I wonder if he knew Percy Flowers
I make and it really fun...they call me the Corn Chemist
Was it good?
I worked with someone in the 1970 who lived in a community well known for its moonshining. He gave me the recipe and basic instructions on making a still. A couple of guys got together built a still, mixed and brewed the formula, let it work for 21 days. Then when it came time to run it through the still, they wouldn't take the chance because solder was used to put all copper still together and to connect the copper pipe to the still and filling hole. It was bottled as was and was v.effective
Did you all drink it with out running in the still?
@@anthonymiller2754 you can but it's rarely done because it gives you diarrhea
Silver solder.
Personally, I’d rather buy NON TAXED Shine.
If ran right slow easy the best all cooper still. The best in taxed. 😊
None taxed taste better😊
well, ive run my fair share of it, and the ol boy is right, theyy make solder that aint got much lead in it, or all ya have to do is make a paste of half flour and half oatmeal or rye bran, and paste all the joints, it aint rocket science, u dont wanna drink too much mash, that stufff will make ya shit fire ,and burp sin.. and anyone who thinks theynbwanna try making shine best think hard, cuz its a hard dang job, the only fun part is when the worm starts spittin the good stuff,
Welcome to NASCAR
Love moonshine
So if I pay my taxes on it I can make it?
Ain’t no fun !!! That’s right
Stainless steel the way to go!! Even popcorn 🍿 said that 🎃
I’d like to see that, he was pretty dead set on using copper for everything
Do right
I treat them like thieves!!!!
food safe silver solder ;)
Wrong interviewer. Square peg on on side and country boy on the other.
this interviewer is painful to watch
