George Dickel was established in 1870 in Tennessee, United States of America. The brand was founded by George A. Dickel, who believed that his whisky was of such high quality that he wanted to spell it 'whisky' in the Scottish tradition. Over the years, George Dickel has become synonymous with Tennessee whisky, known for its smooth and mellow character, which is a result of its unique distillation process.
George Dickel employs the Lincoln County Process, a charcoal mellowing technique that filters the whisky through sugar maple charcoal before aging. This method imparts a distinctive smoothness and depth of flavor. The distillery produces a range of whiskies, including their flagship George Dickel No. 12 and the George Dickel Barrel Select. The brand is also known for its commitment to quality and tradition, making it a respected name in the world of American whisky.
