5 Destination Tennessee Distilleries

"Tucked back in the Cascade Hollow of Tullahoma, Tennessee, Dickel has crafted its distinct sour mash Tennessee whisky (note the spelling) for almost 150 years. Following post-prohibition rebirth in 1964, it rebuilt its distillery into a robust summertime must-see. The Front Porch Friday series, which runs from May to October, features signature cocktails and Nashville songwriters in a pastoral setting far from the bustle of Lower Broadway. A bonus for pilgrims: Its visitor center is one of the few places in the world where all four Bottled in Bond series liquors are readily available." - Jon Gugala
