Visitor Tips and News About George Dickel Distillery Tour
Reports and tips from RoadsideAmerica.com visitors and Roadside America mobile tipsters. Some tips may not be verified. Submit your own tip.
On the George Dickel Distillery tour, Tennessee whiskey is made the same way as it was in 1870. Cascade Hollow is nestled on the Highland rim of the Cumberland Plateau and use the clean, fresh limestone water from the Cascade Springs. The tour is about the same as other distilleries, with the exception of the open fermenting vats and plastic Dickel caps you wear on the tour and keep.
No pictures are allowed inside due to flashes and fumes, but you may take all you want outside of visitor's center, Barrel House, and bust of George Dickel. The distillery has it own U.S. Post Office in the general store.
