Face Jug History

Down in rural North Carolina there use to be a thriving moonshine industry and since in rural North Carolina lies the little pottery crazed town of Seagrove there was bound to be a connection between Moonshine and Pottery.

Now Seagrove doesn't claim to be the first to make the face jug but it does have its place in the face jug history. There are many tales behind the face jug so let me share the two that I best know are true.
