Production & Heritage

Ole Smoky Distillery opened in 2010 as East Tennessee's first legal distillery, operating from a working distillery right on the main strip in Gatlinburg at the doorstep of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Peach Whiskey is distilled in copper pot stills following recipes rooted in generations-old Appalachian moonshine-making traditions. Tennessee whiskey serves as the base spirit, which is then infused with natural peach flavor to produce the finished product — a process that keeps the whiskey's warmth intact while layering on fruit-forward character.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh ripe peaches lead immediately, followed by a gentle sweetness and subtle whiskey warmth. A faint honeyed quality sits underneath, reinforcing the fruit-forward profile.

Taste: The entry is a pronounced burst of juicy peach that dominates the early palate. At mid-palate, warm caramel and vanilla from the whiskey base emerge and merge with the fruit. A light touch of oak rounds out the peak, preventing the sweetness from becoming one-dimensional.

Finish: Clean and moderate in length, with the peach flavor tapering gradually into a warm, comforting whiskey afterglow. No harsh burn — the lower proof keeps the landing soft and approachable.

How to Drink Ole Smoky Peach

Served chilled or over ice, this whiskey is built for casual, warm-weather drinking. Its lower ABV and pronounced fruit character also make it a natural fit for cocktails.

• Peach Mule: The peach flavor pairs naturally with ginger beer and lime, adding depth beyond a standard Moscow Mule.
• Peach Sweet Tea: Combined with iced tea and a squeeze of lemon, it mirrors a Southern staple with a whiskey backbone.
• Peach Whiskey Smash: Muddled mint and lemon let the fresh peach notes shine while keeping the drink bright and balanced.
