SOUTHERN SOUR
Southern Distilling Company is the first legal distillery in Iredell County, and one of the largest privately owned distilleries outside of Kentucky.
The 20 acre Statesville campus houses a tasting room, production facility, barrel aging warehouse, bottling area, and conference room. There’s also two rickhouses on the campus, one currently filled with 24,000 barrels and another just starting to fill up.

Inside the tasting room, you’ll be able to enjoy the whiskey making a star appearance in several different cocktails. Their Southern Sour is made with Southern Star Double Rye to combine the original “big three”: spirit, citrus and sugar. It’s a perfectly sweet, tart, balanced whiskey drink that dates back to the 1870s. The rye is mixed with lemon juice, sugar, and an egg white for a cocktail that truly lets this locally distilled spirit shine.
