Belle Meade

 

My son, Laser Cannon, recently gave me a bottle of Belle Meade Sour Mash Straight Bourbon Whiskey direct from Nashville. Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery has a great history including resurrecting after being shut down during Prohibition. Green Brier history.

I enjoy making cocktails with Bourbon but I am not a connoisseur by any means.  There are sites like The Whiskey Jug that do reviews.  But it did remind me to remind you how enjoyable taking a tour of the growing number of small distilleries popping up across the country can be.  Last time we were in Nashville, we toured Corsair, especially noted for their Ryemageddon American Rye Whiskey.  It’s fun to see the distilling process and the pride in which these folks take in their product.  The tasting room is a bonus. 

One disadvantage of touring small distilleries around the country is that you won’t always find their product in your local liquor store. For example, I haven’t been able to obtain or even order Corsair Gin. Yet you probably have some good distilleries to tour near you and that way you can continue to enjoy their products if they hit the mark.
