George Dickel Distillery
Normandy, TN
Nestled on the Highland Rim of the Cumberland Plateau, the Dickel Distillery lies about halfway between Nashville and Chattanooga. The ancient limestone shelf of this plateau provides water than runs fresh and clear from the nearby Cascade Springs, making the perfect spot for a distillery.
George A. Dickel discovered that whisky made during the winter was smoother than whisky made in the summer. So, George Dickel is the only Tennessee whisky to chill the whisky before it goes into the charcoal mellowing vats. This filters out the oils and fatty acids inherent in most whisky products. George Dickel declared that because his whisky was as smooth as the finest scotch, he would always spell the “whiskey” in George Dickel Tennessee Whisky without an “e," keeping with the Scotch whisky tradition.
Come tour the distillery and discover George Dickel's award-winning whisky and its time-honored traditions.
