Abut George Dickel:

George Dickel is a historic Tennessee whiskey distilled at the Cascade Hollow Distillery in Tullahoma, Tennessee. Known for the Lincoln County Process (charcoal filtering), it uniquely chills its whiskey to 40°F before filtering, resulting in a distinctly smooth, sweet, and occasionally mineral-forward flavor profile.

History

• The Founder: George Augustus Dickel was a prominent German-American merchant in Nashville who distributed a popular whiskey brand called “Cascade” in the late 19th century.
• The Distillery: The original Cascade Hollow distillery opened in 1878, but operations ceased due to Prohibition. The brand was revived in the 1950s and officially renamed George Dickel.
• Ownership: Today, the distillery is owned and operated by the spirits conglomerate Diageo.  

Key Expressions

• George Dickel No. 8 & No. 12: The classic flagship recipes. No. 8 is lighter and approachable, while No. 12 is richer and more robust. Both technically qualify as bourbon, corn whiskey, and Tennessee whiskey.
• Bottled in Bond: A highly praised, budget-friendly 13-year expression.
• Bourbon Releases: Dickel has expanded its lineup with traditional Bourbons, including 8-Year and premium 18-Year offerings.
