Congrats to Old Glory Distillery!

Old Glory Distilling Co. was awarded two national awards for their locally made spirits at the 2024 American Spirits Council of Tasters (ASCOT) Awards. The distillery’s Bottled-in-Bond Tennessee Whiskey was honored with a Double Platinum award, and its Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon secured a gold award.

The ASCOT Awards, an international spirits competition founded by spirits personality and veteran tasting judge Fred Minnick, is celebrated for its rigorous judging process. Old Glory’s accolades were earned in a blind tasting competition, pitting their products against some of the world’s top spirits. Old Glory received top marks from judges on appearance, aroma, taste and finish.

This isn’t the only achievement for Old Glory! Old Glory received two gold medal awards at the Annual Judging of Craft Spirits by the American Craft Spirits Association. Old Glory also recently began distributing their award-winning bourbon to the Greater Nashville area, with plans to expand this distribution in key markets across Tennessee by the end of 2024.

Take a tour!
