My biggest concern was the parking, but it could've been my unfamiliarity with the area as much as anything. I enjoyed the spacious area as well as the opportunity to indulge reasoning for visit whether a tour or just to sip indigenous spirits. Service was excellent from the tour guides to the bar. They sell merchandise and have samples aplenty. I greatly appreciated the detail in describing the difference in flavors. I'm definitely going back and you should too!

I don't just give Five Stars, a place has to really earn it. Whiskey is personal and although we really enjoyed their flavors who knows other people's thoughts. I will say if you are looking for a fun experience, then you need to stop by for a couple of hours and do the "Blend Your Own Bottle" experience. It is awesome.Jim our host and the team are great, entertaining and super informative. We learned a little about their whiskey and the overall experience was fabulous. Plus you get a bottle with your name on it, your friends will be super jealous when you show them that bottle.We really recommend this for a nice date as well as you learn a little about each other. We will do this again on my next Nashville trip.

Ross gave an awesome and informative tour. The tastings were pretty good too...especially the Walton's vodka!

This place is fantastic- a highlight of our Nashville trip. Take the time for this and do it right - do the tour and do the blending. I learned more about bourbon and whisky in an hour than I ever have before, and now taste whisky with a far better appreciation. Shoutout to Jim- thank you. He mixed the best old fashioned I've ever had. Great guides here with a real love of the process and how distilling fits into Tennessee history. And the setting is super - seems to be an old hanger. It's just down the street from Fat Bottom brewery.

Spoiler alert! If you are in the area and enjoy a good rye or mash whiskey then schedule a tour and tasting you will not be disappointed.We showed up for our Thursday tour on Tuesday because someone had a senior moment (me). Once we realized we were a "tad" early Chris accommodated us with a private tour and tasting.Chris was a great subject matter expert who took us through the entire distilling process. This is an active manufacturing site so you get to see the bottling process up close, step over hoses, and are smacked in the face with all the wonderful smells of a working distillery.Out tasting session was off the charts. Their Davidson Reserve straight bourbon whiskey was my favorite. This single barrel whiskey drinks wonderfully straight up or add a single drop of water to change its complexity.Like surprises, then ask for a tasting of their Walton's vodka. There is a cool story regarding the how and why they are producing this vodka. This vodka is as smooth as could be and would make a wonderful dry martini.Surprise number two, Tennessee Sipping Cream is their version of Bailey's Irish Cream. It is made with 100% aged Tennessee Whiskey & real dairy cream. If you like Bailey's you will love this Irish Creme.Here's the bad news their offerings are not available in Texas yet.Great folks with a wonderful 5 star lineup.

Great tour, great owners, great tour to a small (but mighty) batch operation of a distillery. They carry all their Picker's line stuff in addtion to their vodka with their bourbon selection. Did this during the heat of summer with some great people for my birthday and they treated us well and stayed punctual as their schedule loads up fairly quick during the day so make yourself a reservation. There's fat bottom brewery next door which is great to change up the venue afterwards as well so there's plenty to do while you're in this area and not too far from food halls and restaurants off of Charlotte and 51st so make it a thing to come out to this distillery.

We went here on a spit of the moment. Even after going through the JD tour, we still learned additional facts about the distilling process. The history of the company is cool. Our guide, Amanda, was very personable and made us feel welcome. Great variety of whiskey, vodka, and creams. They are also getting into gin.

I've been here twice and loved it! One time I brought my family to do the tour and tastings. So informational and the tastings were all awesome. They have so many different beverages to choose from and a really informed staff. I went to Sip in your zip with a friend and got to explore the distillery again in a different light. This is a great venue for small markets - I hope they do more like this!

Product? Aces.Service? Amazing. Pennington had great drinks and their staff could not have been more welcoming, helpful, and friendly. My favorite distillery in town, hands down. if you're in Nashville, you'd be crazy not to check this place out.
