A rare second chance at one of Tennessee's most celebrated limited releases — George Dickel 17 Year Old Reserve is a limited re-release of the highly sought-after expression that sold out upon its original debut. Distilled and charcoal-mellowed at the historic Cascade Hollow Distillery in Tullahoma, Tennessee — home to one of America's oldest and most storied whisky traditions — this wonderfully mature 17-year-old expression represents George Dickel at its most refined and complex. Aged nearly two decades in Tennessee's climate, it delivers the depth and elegance of a truly exceptional long-aged American whisky.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Rich and inviting with caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, dried fruit, and a warm Tennessee character — 17 years of aging adding extraordinary depth and refinement
• Palate: Full-bodied and beautifully balanced with caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, dark fruit, and a warm spice — the charcoal mellowing process delivering the signature George Dickel smoothness at a level of complexity that only nearly two decades of aging can achieve
• Finish: Exceptionally long, warm, and deeply satisfying with lingering caramel, oak, and a refined spice complexity that evolves beautifully in the glass

Frequently Asked Questions

What is charcoal mellowing?

Charcoal mellowing — also known as the Lincoln County Process — is a pre-aging filtration method unique to Tennessee whisky, where the new spirit is slowly dripped through a thick layer of sugar maple charcoal before entering the barrel. This process imparts a distinctive smoothness and subtle sweetness that sets Tennessee whisky apart from bourbon. George Dickel is one of only two major distilleries in Tennessee to use this process.

Cascade Hollow Distillery is the historic home of George Dickel Tennessee Whisky, located in Tullahoma, Tennessee. Originally established in the 1870s, it is one of the oldest whisky distilleries in the American South and the source of all George Dickel expressions.
