TENNESSEE WHISKEY TRAIL — A RARE COLLABORATION RETURNS — 2026
The Tennessee Collective
UNITED IN CRAFT. BOUND BY SPIRIT. BOTTLED FOR THE TRAIL.
Eleven Tennessee Distilleries. One barrel-aged blend, crafted once and never again. On September 1st, it arrives at distilleries on the trail-all at once.
When the last bottle is gone, it’s gone. There is no second run, no reorder, no next batch. What makes the 2026 edition different is where you’ll find it: for the first time, the Collective arrives at participating distilleries on the trail on the same day.
