Cute place. There was only one person working about 6 groups of 2 who were all tasting, so she was a little pulled thin, but she did her best. We sampled 5 for $5... and only tried the whiskeys/bourbon- staying away from the crazy flavors, as we drink our whiskey neat. We settled on a bottle of the Tennessee Lady sipping whiskey. Easy to drink. read more

$5 for 5 shots! That's practically sums up the awesomeness of this spot. It's just off the 40, exit 74! Easy breezy!! The tasting room was cool and has a very awesome barn feel. The service was awesome, she was helpful and super friendly! Talk about southern hospitality charm :) We end up buying a bottle of whiskey and brandy soaked cherries! It was a very very cool experience and very memorable! read more

Directions: Very easy access off of Hwy 40 exit Lower Brownsville Road take it heading West for 1/2 mile business is on the left. Plenty of parking available close right up front. This was an amazing location to visit, even if you do not drink whiskey like my wife, because of the nostalgic wooden building that houses this business is incredible! There is no food served so bring your own and you can have a nice picnic out front or inside with plenty of seating. This was such a fun trip and the whiskey sampling was amazing! There was all types of flavors of whiskey including a chocolate caramel cream, that even my wife, who does not like the taste of alcohol, liked so much she actually purchased a bottle! I really enjoyed the standard types of whiskey along with the White Dog which is a moonshine that was so smooth it was a pleasure to drink. All the whiskeys and moonshines are made on site and we even took the $10 tour given by the owner which was very interesting and informative. He even gave some awesome stories and history about the past years of whiskey making. If you're looking for an off the beaten path, historical and fun trip you have to go to Samuel T. Bryant Distillery. I highly recommend it! read more

When traveling along between Memphis and Nashville you're gonna see the Samuel T Bryant Distillery signs - unless you're not paying attention - in which case, just quit driving - for ALL of us! Now - let me tell ya what you're NOT going to get - the chaos and crowds of the big name distillers you might be use to seeing. What you ARE going to get - some uniquely produced spirits that are smooth and delicious including some spirits that hang in there with some really good bourbons and sipping whiskeys . Go in for a tasting or maybe a cocktail or 2. The old fashion was quite tasty and the High Top - unique and delicious. Now about that strawberry lemonade - be careful with that one - or you might find yourself sipping down to many of these light refreshing drinks! Just a few minutes off the interstate so why wouldn't ya stop in for a tasting? read more

Best host for a fine bar that helps a guy moving away on Sunday. They made sure he had help and h made sure he had help and they made him feel like he wanted to stay in Jackson/. They are family read more

The tour is interesting - definitely a small operation trying to break into the business, but friendly people and informative (willing to entertain all your questions) I'm a purist of sorts - all the flavors of moonshine are interesting, and good, but the Tennessee Sam whisky is where it's at. Smooth and pure and good. Just give me a shot of this and I'm good to go. read more

Great selection of beer, blending wine drinks were refreshing as well. We had a nice evening eating their brick oven pizzas and enjoying the beautiful property. read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about this place and Mr. Bryant. He allowed us to boondock after pulling in around 8 because I wasn't able to connect on the Harvest Host App. It was beautiful and quiet and we slept like a log. Woke up the next morning and enjoyed the beauty while having a cup of coffee and then headed inside when they opened to sample and stock up on their wonderful liquor. Enjoyed speaking with Mr. Bryant. We came here Oct. 2020 and we're so glad to get to come back and enjoy the beauty and their specialties. We will definitely come again. read more

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. It was such a fun way to break up a long road trip from NY. A great ambiance.

Ambiance was excellent and the service was great! They were so kind and it was a good time. Recommend the "Rectifier" bourbon. Among one of the best. read more

Such accommodating hosts that Sam swung by to open the distillery after they closed (15 min) to let us buy some of their cool products. They kept thanking us for coming by....NO thank you for hosting us on our travels!!! Great kind people creating a great product! We purchased the namesake Samuel T Bryant...Tennessee Sam whiskey and some after dinner sipping "cookies and cream" for later. Yumm! Nice grounds with beautiful huge oak trees that may have been here 100 years or more. Green apples on the trees and some sweet shrubs in bloom. Fabulous climate in mid May! Love the plants! We'll be back! read more

If you are anywhere near Jackson, TN you MUST stop here. It is right off I-40 and a wonderful hidden treasure. You can taste whiskey, rum, tequila, amaretto, moonshine, and cream shines (definitely taste these). We spent the night on sight in our RV through Harvest Hosts and it was a great experience. Pete, Sam (the owners) and the staff were wonderful hosts and Pete gave us a great tour of their facility. A definite must see. read more

Nice distillery offering a selection of distilled products, located just a half-mile off I-40. The staff was friendly and helpful. Guests can enjoy a free tasting of four products in the tasting room. The place also serves mixed drinks. The interior is clean and spacious (but a few more shady seats outdoors would be nice). read more

Samuel T Bryant Distillery - Enjoyed a drink on the shady porch (or is it a patio?) in front of the Bryant Distillery. - Distilleries Near Me - Jackson, Tennessee

Driving from Nashville to Memphis we saw the sign for this distillery and decided to check it out, because who doesn't love a lil early afternoon moonshine? The grounds and building are very beautiful and charming. We had the pleasure of meeting Samuel and got to chat with him and try some of his fabulous moonshine. My favorites were the strawberry and coconut. We even got to tour the distillery with Samuels father. I've tried other moonshine, but so far this is my favorite. tip- strawberry moonshine with lemonade made the best summertime drink! Make sure you load up when you are there because it goes fast! read more

My sister was very insistent that we go to Samuel T. Bryant Distillery. "He went to church with us! I know him from youth group. How do you not remember him?" she quipped. "I am sorry, the name sounds familiar... I guess?" my reply. I would never in a million years that Jackson would have a distillery, let alone a really amazing one. I came here blindly not knowing what to expect. I wasn't necessarily thinking one way or the other, but Jackson isn't known for too much. Maybe we are known for founders of Hard Rock Cafe and Waffle House being from here or maybe that Pringles potato chips are made here. Possibly rockabilly, too? Well, to my amazement - Jackson now can also be known for STB distillery. A group of 4 of us came. We tried their free tastings and ended up purchasing around $180 worth of product. The highlights were hands down moonshine (we got coconut and blueberry), their whisky (Tennessee Hills), and their TNKilla (tequila). Their moonshine was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD! Sam (the owner) and his father, Mr. Bryant, were very gracious in taking the time to talk to us and explain to us everything on how the produce their product and how the distillery came to be. We even got to view where he makes the product. Sam is a leisure winemaker, but doesn't distribute. He had some experience in the alcohol business before opening the distillery up. *Despite growing up with Sam's family and my family in our same church, I really didn't know the gentleman. My sister is 8 years older than I am and they were in a different group of folks than myself. I only write this because I want it to be made known despite my wonderful experience here, this review should NOT be reflected as me writing something for a family friend. I genuinely loved the product and having the opportunity to experience this. Plus, with growing up in Jackson and with my family being the social people that they are - it is 6 degrees of separation in knowing one another!* It was super fun to come here and would advise anyone driving between Memphis and Nashville looking for a good boozy stop along the way to take the time and check out Samuel T. Bryant's distillery! read more

We had a wonderful, fun time here! They are so friendly and taught us so much. We could not help ourselves ... we just had to buy a lot of their amazing moonshines for Christmas gifts and, of course, some for ourselves! I think everyone will totally enjoy this discovery! read more

We found the Samuel T. Bryant Distillery via Boondockers Welcome and were able to reserve an overnight stay. We arrived in plenty of time for Mr. Pete to give a tour and the run down of how they create their dee-lish products. We relaxed in the event hall and enjoyed cocktails and conversations with our fellow RVers. The place is dog friendly too and you won't meet nicer folks. For RVers, the place is a short and easy drive off I 40. read more

Stopped by this distillery after tasting wine at Century Farm vineyard. Sweet old gentleman served us some moonshine. 4 tastings for free $5 for 5 more. The Tenkiller which is really taquilla was excellent. $80 a bottle though. We liked the coffee moonshine and bought a quart bottle. $30. The blueberry and strawberry were also great. Velvet liked the Seasalt Caramel shine too. She liked the Gin alot too. read more

Great whisky and moonshines. Sam and Pete were fantastic to chat with and taste the different flavors of Moonshines. The whisky is smooth as well. We were so happy we made this stop on our trip. Totally recommend a stop by here. read more

This review is for Amber! My dad and I were here on the 22nd of May (Friday) while on a roadtrip from Washington DC to California. I just wanted to thank you for being so kind, helpful, and fun! I've tried the butter pecan cream in some coffee and it is just amazing. I haven't been able to try the other two bottles because they are gifts but I'm sure the receiving bartenders will have a blast with them. Only wish I'd picked up a jar for myself...if you guys ever decide to sell online, I'm there. Also, Amber, super random but I think you're cool. If you want a cross country friend, I'd love to get in touch! I'm sure that sounds weird but whatever. Making friends, particularly with women our age, is ridiculously hard so if I meet someone who seems cool, I try not to take it for granted and reach out Claire read more

We were on a road trip from Nashville to Memphis and decided to see make a quick pit stop here and check it out. Such a great decision! The moonshine flavors were fun to try and the owner is super nice. We took a tour and it was just us and him! 1000% times cooler than doing a big brewery tour. And we walked out with some strawberry moonshine. read more

We saw a billboard for this place, and did the whole "should we stop? Oh yes, let's stop, damn it we passed it, ok, let's turn around." And boy we were we glad we did! This distillery is beautiful. Gorgeous wooden...everything, just gleams and brings you right on in. They have whiskey, tequila (although I don't think it technically can be called tequila....), moonshine and cream liqueurs. So, my expectation for moonshine or the cream liqueurs were very low (no offense!!) but holy cow. Try them. Try most of them. They were all soooo super tasty. Sea salted caramel moonshine? If you say so, oh wait, it's AMAZING. Cookies and cream liqueur? I'll take 4. This place knows what it is doing and it is doing it very well. See that billboard? STOP for this place. read more

As opposed to my "distillery" experience at Old Forge, this operation is actually a farm to bottle working distillery. Look at the labels of their product and "distilled by..." is on the label so you know you are where the magic happens. I can see the corn growing nearby and while this covid thing has messed up tours and the like you can peeak through the barn doors and see the still working and the mash bubbling. I liked the whiskey here although it is NOT a traditional Tennessee whiskey. Traditional maybe the wrong word here but the state has certain criteria to be labeled "Tennessee whiskey" and this whiskey doesn't follow that. But it is damn tasty. Their moonshine was excellent as well (I walked out with a jar of Blueberry shine). If I had a bitch it is that I prefer more corn to my mash bill and what I had here def had rye notes. The tasting room and event area was pretty pimp and the girls working were fun as well. Def worth a stop on the trip between Nashville and Memphis. read more

Was visiting Century Farm Winery and decided to just drive a bit further down the road. We found the Samuel T Bryant Distillery. And what a find! Free samples across an excellent variety. Ended up purchasing some straight moonshine and some flavored moonshine. Absolutely the smoothest I've ever had! Plus super friendly people and great conversation. It is worth the drive (and it's really not that far to get to). Just make the visit! You won't be disappointed. read more

Can't say enough about the staff at Samuel T Bryant. Friendly and helpful. Their spirits are excellent. They have many mixed drinks to try. We enjoyed the "Santa Baby" and took home all the ingredients needed to make them. Thank you also for letting us park our RV for a quick overnight stay for a minimal cost. This a is a great stop along your travels!! read more

They have an excellent selection of distilled spirits - everything from tequila to rum to grappa to the obvious whiskey/moonshine. Their products were great and the owners were very friendly. Stayed here through harvest host in our camper. Highly recommend stopping in for some samples! read more

What a fun stop on the road to Nashville! Couldn't be owned by a friendlier gentleman. Sam is a generous host with plenty of his shine to sample for FREE. Just a half mile off the freeway is where you'll find his pretty little place. We took home some of the Blueberry Shine and looking forward to remembering this fun little stop on our way through TN to Nashville when we enjoy it at home. Thanks Sam! read more

I stopped in today on my way to Arkansas to see what this place was all about. When you turn off the highway onto their road you may think you are headed the wrong way. Don't turn around keep driving and make a visit! The owner and his dad were there to greet me and offer tastings. I ended up buying a couple bottles of their Tennessee Hills Dark Tennessee Whisky. It has a great smooth taste and is good for sipping. I will stop back by when I am in town again. read more

We stopped here and tried the moonshine, bourbon and crème's. Both Mr. Sam and Mr. Pete are wonderful. Everyone is super friendly and the moonshine is super smooth and tasty. This is handcrafted moonshine made in small batches, much better than the commercial distilleries you'll find in the tourist areas. We purchased the apple pie crème, bourbon, and butter pecan creme. read more

Their Peach Moonshine is amazing. We stopped by right before they closed and they were very welcoming.

I can't give anything but 5 stars for STBD! From the time we walked in and Sadie (friendly dog) greeted us to meeting the owner, his family and hostess! Great tasting of whiskeys, tequila and moonshines. Found this place by accident, heading from Memphis to Nashville. We were looking for something to break up the 3 hour trip (other than Loretta Lynn's house), and this place didn't disappoint. Highly recommend and hope we can return again! A++++ read more

Tucked away off the side of the family's farm, yet still right off the highway, this place is charming and quiet. The barn is beautiful inside and boasts gorgeous wood tongue & groove and beams milled from the son's previous tree business. Sam's father was right there to greet us and happy to show us around on a quiet Sunday. Sam offered up samples of his homemade spirits and moonshines, which were all very unique and delicious. The whiskey was so smooth and the tequila was uniquely sweet and tasty. We ended up taking home a bottle of the tequila, bottle of the reserve and a jar of the coffee moonshine. So lucky to have found this little gem, it was a real treat. read more

Great little local distillery. They have tasting for those that are not sure what they're looking for. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Different types of blended whiskey's and moonshine.

Very nice! read more
