Whiskey Tasting Experience in Nashville

Overview
A quick stop from downtown Nashville to Marathon Village takes visitors back in time as they step inside Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery. Digging into the past didn’t turn up skeletons and scandals for brothers Andy and Charlie Nelson; more like sour mash and stills. After discovering their triple great grandfather was one of the most successful whiskey distillers in pre-prohibition America, the brothers vowed to revive the since-forgotten family business.
If you’re into stories about sunken ships and lost gold, a woman running a distillery before women could vote and the rebirth of a business after 100 years, you’ll be sucked into the guided tasting experiences offered at Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery. Sample the spirit based on the recipe for Tennessee’s oldest whiskey, two modern-day, high-rye bourbons and finish your tasting with a caramel pecan liqueur. Commemorate your visit with a peek in the gift and bottle shop where spirits, apparel, and barware are available for purchase.

In a 3 day visit to Nashville this was the far and away highlight! The history is stunning, the energy and enthusiasm of the staff is infectious, and the whiskey's are amazing. The visit is a nice blend of technical insight, historical deep dive, and tasting some damn good whiskey. Not to hate on the big guy - but I have had more Jack Daniels over the years than I can count, and this whiskey makes that look like plonk. If Sinatra could have tasted this stuff he would have changed his regular drink! Get that stuff in distribution boys - the stash I bought won't last long enough!

We went on one of the first tours post Covid! This was our plan B when our first choice was fully booked but the history of this distillery was super cool! We got to see where they fermented, distilled, and bottled their whiskey. We got to try 4 different whiskeys as well. TOTALLY worth the $12 for the tour
