==Background==
Connecticut has a historic association with moonshine. Connecticut and Rhode Island were the only two states in the country to reject the Eighteenth Amendment, which introduced prohibition to the United States. When the federal ban on selling or purchasing alcohol was introduced, it led to the production of moonshine throughout New England, wherein farmers were reputed to have used the grain and corn produced on their farms to operate small stills hidden in barns, producing moonshine for private consumption. Small Connecticut cities, such as Hartford, New Haven, and Waterbury were the locations for operating speakeasies during prohibition.〔”Middletown Patch 2”〕〔"Connecticut’s Heritage Gateway"〕
