George Dickel Signature Recipe Tennessee Whisky undergoes a unique chilling and filtration process through sugar maple charcoal before aging, known as the Lincoln County Process, which imparts a smooth character and removes impurities. The whisky is then matured in new charred oak barrels for several years, with older whiskies blended in to achieve its deep, assertive flavors and remarkably smooth finish.

George Dickel Signature Recipe is one of the few Tennessee whiskies that uses a unique chilled charcoal mellowing process. Before aging, the whisky is cooled to 40°F and slowly trickled through 13 feet of sugar maple charcoal, resulting in an exceptionally smooth flavor profile.

Despite being a Tennessee whisky, George Dickel uses the Scottish spelling of "whisky" without the "e." This tradition dates back to the brand's founder, who believed his product was of such high quality that it deserved to be associated with fine Scotch whiskies.

The water used in George Dickel Signature Recipe comes from Cascade Spring, a limestone-filtered source that's been used by the distillery since 1870. This naturally iron-free water is believed to contribute significantly to the whisky's distinct character and smoothness.
