Jack Daniel Distillery Barrel House 1-14Recipient of 2017 AGC Build Tennessee Renovation Project Award. “Barrel House 1-14 was originally constructed in 1938 and was the first barrel warehouse built by Jack Daniel’s following the end of prohibition. The renovation program included two, three-story high glass-wall tasting pavilions and a main atrium that will be used for dinners, receptions and other special events. From both the tasting pavilions and the atrium, guests will be able to view the massive original oak structural elements of the building, as well as barrels of aging whiskey stored on racks ranging three stories to the roof of the building.
