This tour was more expensive but included a souvenir photo, gift and the tasting of the select JD line. Our tour guide Jon T was fabulous. We have been to many distillery tours on this vacation and Jon was by far the BEST! Knowledgeable, personable and loves what he does! Since our last visit in 2015 most of the JD merch has been moved to the downtown area - shuttle bus provided. Spirits are available for sale at the distillery but in comparing prices to our local liquor store they were actually more expensive. One is made and sold only on site. Tennessee Rye whiskey finished in table syrup barrels at $44.75 Unfortunately we were not able to sample it so decided against purchase. VIsitor center was well laid out. great staff and wonderful exhibits. Lots of walking and stairs but they tell you that in advance. Also visited the Squire house next door - great staff and wonderful displays as well as merchandise specifically for Squires! Highly recommend a trip to JD Distillery!

Every visit feels like something you gotta share with people. That's why it's a 10 every time.

Upon arrival, the property itself was absolutely beautiful. The rich green colors, the open driveway, the art that could be visibly seen from the highway. Very gorgeous! The welcome center was clean and modern, displaying history of Nearest Green's lineage, facts about the art of distilling, display cases filled with tools from the original distillery/farm, as well as display cases for their world-renowned Tennessee Whiskey. The staff were all polite and welcoming. Our tour guide (forgot his name, but I have a picture of him!) was awesome! He was funny, personable, and very knowledgeable. He shared that he's been at NGD for the past 3 years and you could tell that he enjoys his job. The tour was great. The only downside was that half of the property was off-limits or non-operational at the moment. The time slot of our tour unfortunately occurred closer to closing time so we weren't able to check out their bar, Humble Baron. We did get to visit the speakeasy on the property and the area where they pour and bottle for the welcome center. It would've been fun to check out the stables to see all of the pretty horsies. Overall, it was a good experience. To visit a place filled with rich history, black history. Praying for the Nearest success for more opportunities to continue sharing the Green legacy.

When it started raining in Chattanooga, my humans found the perfect backup plan…read more While dogs aren't allowed on the distillery tour itself, they are welcome in the tasting room and bar area, which meant I could still join the adventure. The atmosphere was warm, relaxed, and cozy, with plenty of seating for humans to settle in and enjoy a whiskey flight. The staff immediately made me feel welcome and even brought over a water bowl without being asked. As a professional lounge dog, I appreciated the hospitality. My humans enjoyed sampling several whiskeys while I worked hard supervising the tasting process from my blanket-covered seat at the bar. The tasting room has a comfortable, laid-back feel that makes it easy to spend an hour or two escaping the weather. The unexpected highlight? The gift shop sells a plush dog toy of one of their whiskey bottles. Naturally, my humans bought one for me, and it quickly became one of my favorite toys. If you're traveling with a dog and looking for a dog-friendly indoor activity in Chattanooga, this is an easy recommendation. Dogba's verdict: Great whiskey for the humans, water service for the dogs, and a souvenir toy worthy of bringing home.

We will definitely be back and booking more tours in the future for our company.

All of it was outstanding. This is why I like the craft distilleries. They take a great amount of pride in their product and it shows. The distillery itself is simple but beautiful. Large amount of extras to purchase if you like. If you go there, look for Sue and you will have a great time sampling outstanding LOCAL distilled products. Highly recommend,

We chose to sit outside because live music was scheduled, and we didn't want it to be too loud for Luna.

They also offer tastings, though it seems to depend on how busy they are. There was just one bartender managing everything, but she was fantastic--super attentive, and we never had to wait. Luna met a couple of other dogs, and we saw several more pass by while we were there. It was nice to see others out enjoying a drink with their pups.

Again, nice place and we will be back, but when you have an intimate/small setting like they do, I would make a small suggestion of being a bit more personable, and being able to keep better track of customer checks.

Came here as part of a whiskey tour, and was excited to do their tasting. I'd describe myself as a…read more"formerly pretty good" blind taster of whiskeys meaning I can usually distinguish between ages within a brand. I like a little of everything - smoky, peaty, sweet - as long as its reasonably smooth and well balanced. Given this preference, I tend to know better than to go with cask strength whiskeys, but I tried their maple wood finished cask strength to be a good sport. And to my surprise it was just perfect - like the extra concentration (57.7% vs the standard 40%) added more flavor rather than more burn. I think it was about $100 a bottle so I grabbed one and decided to check a bag so I could bring it home - it was that good.
