Golden Grove George Dickel Straight Tennessee Wheat Whiskey

A Crisp Autumn Evening

Cascade Hollow Distilling Co., better known as George Dickel, is one of the most storied distilleries in the country. Founded in 1878 and rebuilt in the 1950s, the distillery has long been a defining voice in Tennessee whiskey and has soared to new heights under the leadership of trailblazing distiller Nicole Austin. George Dickel is Lost Lantern’s first heritage distillery partner.

Lost Lantern worked closely with the George Dickel team to create this special collaboration, the first-ever release of the distillery’s Tennessee wheat whiskey. A marriage of 6 casks aged for 4 to 8 years, it exhibits what makes wheat whiskey truly special: rich notes of nutmeg, chocolate banana bread, and warm oak, as well as a remarkable softness on the palate.

George Dickel is a massive distillery, and that means they have plenty of room to make whiskies beyond what we regularly see, just to experiment and push the boundaries. That’s what this hot-climate wheat whiskey is all about. Very different from either the rye or the Tennessee whiskey, this is a soft, warm whiskey reminiscent of a wheated bourbon, but with notes of strawberries and vanilla.

This is part of our trio of Single Distillery Series releases from George Dickel, along with Fabled Forest Tennessee whiskey and Golden Grove wheat whiskey.
