Benjamin Prichard's Tennessee Whiskey is a Tennessee whiskey produced in the community of Kelso, Tennessee.[2] The distillery was opened in 1997, making it the first new legal distillery to open in the state since prohibition was repealed.[2][3] Prichard's second distillery opened May 2014 in Nashville, Tennessee at Barbara Mandrells Fontanel on Whites Creek Pike.[3][4]
The brand markets several varieties of whiskey, though Prichard's markets one label as their flagship Tennessee Whiskey. Their rye whiskey is also marked as a Tennessee Rye Whiskey on the label. While being the only operating distillery in Lincoln County (and their white whiskey being named Lincoln County Lightning), Prichard's is not produced via the Lincoln County Process.[5] Due to a special grandfathering exemption under a Tennessee law enacted in 2013, Prichard's Kelso distillery is the only producer that is allowed to label its product as "Tennessee Whiskey" without using the Lincoln County Process.[6][7]
As of 2012, Prichard's was the only Tennessee whiskey on the market distilled in pot stills.[8] All products are sold in glass 750ml bottles.
