Nashville Barrel Company · Whiskey tasting
If you are already downtown, the tasting room on Church Street is a short walk from Broadway and the Ryman. If you have a car, distillery HQ on Fesslers Lane has free parking. Both pour the same whiskey.
The tasting room is at 425 Church Street, Nashville, TN 37219. It is walkable from Broadway and the Ryman, so it is the stop that fits a concert night or an afternoon with no car. Hours on the door: Monday–Thursday 11am–7pm, Friday–Saturday 11am–8pm, Sunday 11am–5pm. Get directions.
The Whiskey Flight from the Barrel is $35. A bartender thieves four drams straight from the barrel and you taste them at the bar, at your own pace. The tours page describes it as served at the bar rather than as a guided tour. Walk-ins are accepted. If you want the time held, book it: book the downtown flight.
Guided tastings are reserved online through Xola. The Premium Tasting is $50 and guide-led. The whiskey and chocolate pairing is $40. The Single Barrel Experience is $150, about 60 minutes, and includes a bottle — that is a tasting, not the purchase of a whole barrel. Blend Your Own Whiskey is $200, about 60 minutes, bottle included.
Downtown guided tasting: book Premium downtown. Every option, with a downtown or HQ choice, is on the tours page.
HQ is 222 Fesslers Lane, Nashville, TN 37210, about 2 miles from downtown, with free parking on site. Hours: Monday–Thursday 9am–6pm, Friday 9am–7pm, Saturday 10am–7pm, Sunday 10am–5pm. Directions to HQ. The same $35 flight is bookable at HQ, and walk-ins are accepted for that flight. Full maps for both rooms are on Visit.
This is also where most private barrel selections happen, if the tasting turns into “we should just pick a barrel.” That is a different purchase. See private barrel selection.
NBC bottles single barrels at cask strength, without chill filtration, and a few blends such as The Compromise. A flight is the fastest way to taste that style before you decide whether to book a longer experience or take a bottle home. For the proof range, read what barrel strength means.
If you are building a day rather than a single stop, the downtown room pairs with a show. HQ pairs with anyone who would rather park once. Either way, call 615-669-0083 if the group is large.
Walk-in flights are $35 at the bar. Guided tastings are booked in Xola so the time is held. A private barrel is an inquiry, not a ticket.
