A Memphis whiskey tour is a guided tour of distilleries and other whiskey-related sites in Memphis, Tennessee. Tours typically include tastings of various whiskeys, as well as information on the history and production of whiskey in the city.
Memphis has a long and storied history of whiskey production. The city was home to some of the largest and most successful distilleries in the country in the 19th and early 20th centuries. However, Prohibition and other factors led to the decline of the industry in Memphis. In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in whiskey production in the city. Several new distilleries have opened in Memphis, and the city is once again becoming a major player in the American whiskey industry.
