More about George Dickel
It takes an extraordinary place to produce an extraordinary whiskey. Distilled for generations in the hills of Cascade Hollow, a sip of George Dickel whiskey is years in the making.
1870: The beginning
Born 40 years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, George A. Dickel was an established Nashville merchant when he entered the whiskey business. Dickel grew his reputation for selling the smoothest, most mellow spirits in the region.
Thus, Geo. A. Dickel & Co. was born and when the Cascade Hollow Distillery opened in 1878 in neighboring Coffee County, George Dickel bought a large share.
