Driving Directions

Belmont Farm Distillery is where "legal Moonshine" is made. Master distiller, Chuck Miller, got this idea from his Grandfather (who made illegal moonshine, back in his day). In 1987, six miles south of Culpeper, Virginia, on their 189 acre farm, in their backyard, Chuck and Jeanette Miller renovated an old workshop into a distillery. Materials from an old Catholic church (that Chuck Miller had torn down) were added i.e. the front doors, a window, two pews. Licenses and permits were obtained from the Federal and State governments, the BATF and the VAABC. With his unique recipe, Chuck, made his first batch of Virginia Lightning (moonshine). Today, Virginia Lightning, sells in all the ABC stores in Virginia and in their gift shop on the farm.

We are open Tuesday through Saturday, 9:00am to 5:00pm, April 1 through December 1.
