While most of us have a deep appreciation for all things handmade, there something extra special about handmade ceramic mugs. We associate them with moments in life that we cherish so deeply: the quiet time with your morning coffee before the hustle and bustle of the day begins, hot cocoa by the fire with your family on a cold and blustery winter evening, tea on the front porch on the first perfect day of spring...
But it’s more than just that. Your choice of handmade mugs reflects your personality and unique aesthetic flair. And behind that aesthetic is a rich story that begins with the mug’s maker – a story that becomes wrapped up in your own as you travel through your daily life, punctuating mornings, evenings, and special moments with your favorite mug in hand. Over time it becomes a comforting and familiar reminder of all those special moments past.
The Plottfest 2021 handcrafted clay mugs by Cory Plott are just such a reminder of your life, of a special moment like the PlottFest, or the story of your life with a special breed of dog. Don’t let this moment to be part of the history of the Plott Hunting Dog pass you by and help us create future special moments by purchasing a PlottFest 2021 mug before they are gone.

Andy Orr was arguably the most notorious and industrious of the early outlaw moonshiners in WNC. Orr spent most of his life in Graham County N.C. where he was a member of the one of the most famous hunting clans to ever reside in the Great Smoky Mountains –the Orr family. Orr realized at an early age that he had no use for farming, mining or any other typical manual labor, and devoted his life instead to hunting, fiddle playing and his Plott dogs. However, Orr had to find a way to fund these passions – and he found that in making and selling liquor. Get a Canvas print of his pictures and a history written by Meadowlark Smoky Mountain Heritage Center GM Bob Plott. This is the same Canvas Print that hangs in our famous Moonshine Room at the Meadowlark Motel.
Our vintage-style, 12-oz. mug is lightweight and sturdy, perfect for your morning coffee or tea. Creating a mystery about what you might be drinking (is it moonshine?) is bound to make you smile in the morning. Our mug is made from enamel, making it re-usable (with a super long life span). Seriously cute.
