	Bootlegging - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Most bootleg liquor is not "home-made" by a moonshiner but, instead, bottled by professional distillers.
		During Prohibition of the 1920s in the United States, much of the bootleg whiskey in the U.S. was brought in from Canada and much of the bootleg rum was imported from Mexico or Cuba.
		Today most bootleg alcohol in the U.S. is made domestically but sold "under the table" or "off the back of a truck" without the necessary permits and taxes.

		The original meaning of bootleg in the seventeenth century was a rather boring one: 'the upper part of a boot'.
		In early use, around 1890, this was usually referring to liquor, with "bootleg" as a noun being more-or-less equivalent to moonshine, and as a verb meaning 'to smuggle liquor'.
		Still later senses, such as the bootleg play, which was in use by the 1940s, bring the idea of simple deception to bear.
