We stumbled upon this place while driving through the area. Looking forward to coming back for the October festival! Started as a small, one man story teller and has grown into quite the gathering. Jonesborough is a wonderful, small historic town to wander around as well.

Tennessee Hills Distillery is the dream and vision of our founder, Stephen Callahan. The distillery is located in Jonesborough, Tennessee's oldest town, and housed in the very historic Salt House building which was constructed in the1840s and used to store salt during the Civil War era. The building has gone through a very rigorous renovation process and provides the perfect venue for any tourist visiting Jonesborough. While at the distillery, visitors have the opportunity to witness every aspect of our liquor making process such as mashing/fermenting to the final distillation in our hand-made copper stills that were built by the fellas at Tennessee Hills Distillery, as well as our bottling and packaging processes. The facility also provides a tasting bar that will allow our customers and tourist to experience and purchase all of our Tennessee Hills products.

Very informative about the formation and history of Jonesborough. I liked the fact that it is a self guided tour so you can spend as much as you like at each exhibit.
