Jack Daniel Distillery
The famous Tennessee whiskey distillery in the small town of Lynchburg, where you can see the maple charcoal filtering process and the Jack Daniel's spring cave. It is a classic day trip from Nashville.
Jack Daniel Distillery is in the small town of Lynchburg, about 120 km southeast of Nashville, and is one of the oldest registered distilleries in the United States. Tours cover maple wood charcoal burning, charcoal filtering (the Lincoln County Process), the iron-rich spring cave and the barrel warehouses. Most tours include a tasting of Tennessee whiskey. Visitors must be 21 or older and bring a passport. Tours cost about US$25–50 and must be booked in advance. The distillery is in Moore County, which is a 'dry county', so special rules apply to buying alcohol on site. The drive takes about 1.5–2 hours one way.
