Nashville VIP Guide · Exclusive Experiences
Nashville has exceptional VIP experiences beyond the standard tourist circuit. The best ones are the ones nobody else books — private barrel picks, hands-on blending with a Tennessee Blender of the Year, and custom bottles from barrels ranked in the national top 4. Nashville Barrel Company leads this list.
VIP in Nashville doesn't have to mean a velvet rope and a bottle of something you could buy anywhere. Nashville Barrel Company's VIP experiences are defined by access to something genuinely rare — single barrels that ranked above George T. Stagg in a national blind tasting, a Tennessee Blender of the Year walking you through the tasting, and a custom-labeled bottle that literally nobody else in the world has.
The experience isn't exclusive because it's expensive. It's exclusive because the whiskey is exceptional and the access is real.
The NBC private barrel pick is the most exclusive whiskey experience available in Nashville. You taste through award-winning single barrels with a guide — the same barrels that ranked #2 and #4 nationally in Fred Minnick's blind tasting above George T. Stagg. You pick the winner. That barrel is yours — bottled on-site with your name, your label, your occasion on it. Nobody else in the world gets that exact whiskey. Available for individuals, retailers, and private groups at NBC HQ (222 Fesslers Lane).
The Blend Your Own Whiskey session ($200/person, custom bottle included) is Music City's most hands-on premium whiskey experience. Tennessee Blender of the Year leads you through different barrel profiles — you taste, decide your ratio, set the proof, and leave with a bottle that's entirely your creation. The same expertise behind barrels ranked in the national top 4, applied to your personal blend. 60 minutes. Private session available at HQ.
Book This Experience →The Premium Tasting ($50) is the VIP education experience — a 45-minute guide-led deep dive into cask-strength whiskey at NBC. Mashbills, aging profiles, barrel selection criteria. The same knowledge that earned NBC Tennessee Blender of the Year, shared over a pour that ranked #4 nationally. Walk-in at both Nashville locations.
