Southern Distilling is located in Statesville, NC. It's a quick trip off the highway and well worth the trip. The distillery has its own bar, a tour and tastings at the end of the tour. Southern bottles under its own label and provides bourbon and other distilled products to bottlers. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. If you are in the Charlotte, NC you will find Southern to be a jewel of the area, merging regional tradition with modern day quality control and excellence. I look forward to going back soon!

Such a cozy setting, staff is very friendly. Special shoutout to Angie - bartender was so amazing and shared her "hidden" drink! We bought 3 bottles and had a drink at the bar - everything was fabulous.

I had been wanting to visit for a long time and finally worked it out. Why did I wait so long? What a wonderful experience! Angela was very knowledgeable and friendly and guided us through our tasting. Great bourbon from right here in NC. A great hidden secret!

We stopped in for a tour, tasting, and cocktails on a Sunday afternoon and had a lovely experience! We wish we had found this location sooner and we can’t wait to visit again! The tour guide and bartender were informative and friendly. Our tour guide is a history teacher and shared a wealth of knowledge about whiskey in NC that we really enjoyed hearing! We’re big whiskey drinkers and we went home with a few bottles. We really enjoyed the double rye and we felt that the bourbon cream was out of this world! I think any non-bourbon drinker would still enjoy the informative tour and the bourbon cream- it would be amazing in an espresso martini or even straight as a dessert cocktail. The tasting room has such fun decor and don’t miss the cute donkeys at the entrance!

What a wonderful place to enjoy an afternoon. Great, informative tour by a friendly guide. Fun Tasting after the tour. Nice to see small local business offering this niche. Beautiful grounds and buildings. And, I got a Christmas present taken care of. Definitely go if you are into this.
