Nashville Barrel Company · December visit · 21+
Things to do in Nashville in December start with a tasting you have already booked. Hold a guide-led hour at 425 Church Street or at 222 Fesslers Lane, then use the rest of the day downtown. Christmas things to do in Nashville fill the same weekends. A walk-in flight is the backup. You have to be 21.
The holiday tasting to book is the Whiskey and Wine Chocolate Pairing. It is $40, about 30 minutes, and guide-led: a Bourbon, Rye, and Agave flight, or three wines, with three chocolates. Book it online. It is not a walk-in.
Book the $40 pairing downtown. Book the $40 pairing at HQ.
The Premium Tasting is $50, guide-led, and runs 30–45 minutes at the same two addresses. Book Premium downtown. Book Premium at HQ. Every option, with a downtown or HQ choice, is on the tours page.
Nashville Barrel Company is on the Tennessee Whiskey Trail. The same booked tastings run at both rooms. Call 615-669-0083 if the group is large.
The downtown tasting room is 425 Church Street, Nashville, TN 37219. Hours: Monday–Thursday 11am–7pm, Friday–Saturday 11am–8pm, Sunday 11am–5pm. It is walkable from Broadway and the Ryman. No car needed. Directions to Church Street. Maps are on the downtown visit page.
Distillery HQ is 222 Fesslers Lane, Nashville, TN 37210, about 2 miles from downtown, with free parking on site. Hours: Monday–Friday 9am–6pm, Saturday 10am–6pm, Sunday 10am–5pm. Directions to HQ. The full HQ page is 222 Fesslers Lane. Both hour sets are also on Visit.
For a 21+ Christmas plan, pair the booked tasting with a bottle from the same visit. Both rooms can do that.
Bottle Your Own from the Barrel is $99.99. Walk in at 425 Church Street or at 222 Fesslers Lane, choose a barrel, and fill a bottle on site. No reservation. That is the gift bottle at both locations.
If the gift should include a guide, book it. The Single Barrel Experience is $150, about 60 minutes, and includes a bottle. That is a tasting, not the purchase of a whole barrel. Downtown uses a separate checkout: book the Single Barrel Experience downtown. At HQ: book the Single Barrel Experience at HQ.
Blend Your Own Whiskey is $200, about 60 minutes, bottle included. Book Blend Your Own downtown. Book Blend Your Own at HQ. To give the tasting itself, start from gift an experience.
A whole barrel for a company is a different purchase. Private barrel selection does not list a public barrel price. A group that wants the room for a party should use the private holiday party page. A plan for two is on the couples guide.

Use the flight when those times are gone, or hold the downtown flight or hold the HQ flight if you still want that hour kept.
The holiday tasting is the $40 chocolate pairing or the $50 Premium, booked at either address. The gift bottle is Bottle Your Own, $99.99, at both rooms. 21+.
