Short Mountain Distillery may have some company in the new year, as more areas will have the opportunity to establish them.More distilleries are coming to Tennessee in the New Year. The state Legislature has approved a new law that allows around 40 more counties to manufacture distilled spirits. Under the legislation, manufacturers are allowed to begin production in any county, including Davidson County, where liquor retail package sales and by-the-drink sales have already been approved.
Up until now, only the Jack Daniel’s, George Dickel and Prichards’ Rum distilleries were allowed to produce liquor in Moore, Coffee and Lincoln counties, respectively.
