Ole Smoky Distillery, one of the nation’s fastest growing spirits companies and the most visited distillery in the world, announces that it sold more than 1 million 9L cases for the first time in the company’s history.
The landmark was reached thanks to a 48% increase in the company’s moonshine and whiskey sales volumes in 2021 versus the previous year.
“Hitting the 1 million case mark for our fine beverages is an historic milestone for Ole Smoky Distillery as we continue the brand’s extraordinary achievements that reinforce our position as the leading distiller of premium moonshine in the world and the leading craft distiller in the United States,” says Robert Hall, CEO, Ole Smoky Distillery. “We also welcomed an additional 1.2 million visitors in 2021 at our four distilleries in Tennessee. We are proud that each year more and more people visit our distilleries to try our growing variety of quality moonshine and whiskey products.”
Ole Smoky Distilleries were the most visited distilleries in the world in 2021, welcoming more than 5.7 million visitors, up from the distilleries’ previous record of 4.5 million visitors in 2019.
Each Ole Smoky distillery location includes working stills and fermentation tanks and an expansive visitor experience, including self-guided tours, moonshine and whiskey tastings, live music, and large retail shops featuring Ole Smoky moonshine, whiskey, apparel, accessories, and food.
In 2021, Ole Smoky Distillery introduced its small-batch premium whiskey brand with their first expression honoring family ties, James Ownby Reserve Tennessee Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
