Small batch distilleries had a banner 2015, with new ones popping up around the States and a surge in visits. But don’t overlook the tried and true: these are the 20 top-rated distilleries right now.
Charles Roberts: They do a great tour that is well worth the spare time on your trip through Tennessee. If you're considering following that sign from I-65, do it!
Stevie Swan: The tour is an awesome deal! Grab a cocktail from the bar before you go down. It can help if you taste something you don't drink often or enjoy. Line up your tasting glasses for the pourer too! Cheers

Distillery · 68 tips and reviews
Cory O'Brien: For a unique experience, sign up for the 'Tasting Wheel' sampling. You'll lean how to bring out specific flavors by mixing bourbon with food.
Crystal Martin: Great free moonshine samples, awesome bluegrass music in the Holler. After you try your samples sit in the rocking chairs and enjoy the free music!
Webb Henderson: Loved the Aspen Gold... Also they removed the restaurant a couple years ago, so if you haven't been in a while it might throw you off when you see the bottling room there instead.
Caryn Coyle: The Bloody Mary w/horseradish vodka is awesome...also try the Mon Cheri-like melted dark chocolate with a sweet cherry at the bottom. Outstanding!
Ted Trentler: Awesome local Distillery. Take the tour and then checkout the tasting room. If you have kids under 21 they can go on the tour as well. They just get water in the tasting room!
Christian Allemang: Be sure to try one of the whiskey/vodka flights. Based off your favorite, you can choose a Featured or Signature cocktail to your liking.
jeremy miller: Home of Hudson Whiskey - 1st distillery in New York State to open since prohibition. Awesome place with a good tour and great whiskey tasting.
