​​Digging into the past didn’t turn up skeletons and scandals for brothers Andy and Charlie Nelson; more like sour mash and stills. After discovering their triple great grandfather was one of the most successful whiskey distillers in pre-prohibition America, the brothers vowed to revive the since-forgotten family business. If you’re into sunken ships and lost gold, a woman running a distillery before women could vote and the rebirth of a Nashville business after 100 years, you’ll be sucked into this story. Sample gold medal award-winning Nelson’s Green Brier Tennessee Whiskey, the spirit based on the wheated mash bill recipe for Tennessee’s oldest whiskey and mellowed in a sugar maple charcoal bed. Taste the perfected blends of two, modern-day, straight bourbon whiskeys crafted by the Nelson Brothers, and finish your tasting with strong and sweet Louisa’s coffee caramel pecan liqueur.

Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for the distillery tour? Can I bring my teens?

A: You can bring your teens along since they can join the tour, but they won't be able to sample the alcohol, obviously! Just make sure to check if they’re okay with the whole distillery vibe, because it can get a bit technical. The tour is insightful and fun, so it might still be a cool experience for them.

Q: Is the tour wheelchair accessible? My friend uses a chair.

A: Yes, the Nelson's Green Brier Distillery is wheelchair accessible. They’ve made sure that everyone can enjoy the tour, so just let them know in advance if you have specific needs. They’ll do their best to accommodate you!

Q: What’s the best time to book the tour? Is there a busy season?

A: The best time to book is during the fall when the weather is nice and the leaves are changing. Weekdays tend to be less crowded than weekends, especially during summer. Just keep in mind they do have special seasonal tours, so check their calendar for those as well.

Thinking of gifting the distillery tour - any thoughts?

Hey everyone! I’m considering getting the Nelson's Green Brier Distillery tour experience for my dad’s birthday. He loves whiskey, and I think it’d be a cool way to learn about the history of whiskey making in Nashville. Plus, he can taste some of their award-winning stuff! Anyone done this tour? What did you think about the tastings and the whole vibe? I wanna know if it’s worth it!

Recently did the distillery tour - here's my experience!

Just got back from the Nelson's Green Brier Distillery tour and I can’t recommend it enough! The history was fascinating, especially the part about their great-grandfather. And oh man, the bourbon tastings were top-notch! It was such a fun atmosphere. Make sure to wear comfy shoes since there’s a bit of walking involved. Can’t wait to go back!
