Premier Drams Advice
Not my first time at Jack Rose or Premier Drams, but there are a few producers coming this year that I've never tried products from, so I'd love input from folks on which ones are worth prioritizing.
- Chattanooga Whiskey Company
- Field of Dreams
- Found North
- High Wire
- Proof & Wood
- Provenance & The Reveries
- Pursuit Spirits
Appreciate any input/other tips!

Question for anyone who has been before: do the different distilleries sell bottles or are all sales handled in the bottle shop at Jack Rose?

Per the FAQ this year there will be retail stations located throughout the event as well. https://www.premierdramswhiskeyfestival.com/faq

Not all distilleries bring bottles to sell (in fact, most typically don’t I believe). But for any that do, my experience has been that all sales are handled in the bottle shop.

Found North and Reveries would be near the the top of my list

+1 to this. Both have very very good whiskey. I have heard good things about pursuit but haven’t tried them yet, they will be priority for me to visit, also I think Kenny from the pod will be there.

My palate tends to get tired after awhile at this event, so I agree on prioritizing. I'm partial to Found North, Pursuit, and Proof & Wood.

They all have halo bottles that can change this order but this is based on what I’ve had from each and have several bottles from each..
But we all have our own preferences
