During a recent visit to Tennessee we visited Tennessee Shine Co. at their new location in…read moreSevierville. Years ago we had gone to Cades Cove and happened upon their Weays Valley location. We became loyal customers since then. The new building is fantastic, everything has the same vibe and awesome decor. What really makes it though are the staff. The friendliness of Pickle in the shine side and Big Sexy in the wine side made us feel like family even before the tasting started. Great selection in both areas, well displayed and knowing you can taste before you buy is good. I shared pictures with family in Washington State and they couldn't believe we could try it first and were excited by the choices.

I really liked the Orange Dreamsicle and Key Lime- they have so many choices. The staff is all welcoming and friendly- they are also helpful with different recipes to mix and match - and eager to learn your likes and dislikes to make food suggestions. Brandon was our "shine-ista" and very knowledgeable about moonshine and the area in general. We sampled our fair share and left with lots of goodies- buy 5 get 1 free and a discount for VIP bracelets. My only call out would be to have some bar stools at the sample bars- that would have been a nice touch.

I've come to learn that the wines and ciders in Gatlinburg run SWEET and honestly I love it. Of all the spots, I feel like the alcohol content may have been the lowest here. The bartenders are so friendly, and the ciders were so delicious. It really was like juice! The fruit flavors are super authentic and refreshing.

They try to upsell you $10 just for their tastings, when in reality you can get tastings at 3 different places plus a shirt if you do the $10 wine trail). The ciders were good; a bit sweet! Service was friendly but also really moving and getting people in and out. A fun spot for a few tastings!

We stopped here as part of the Whiskey Trail experience, and not only was it the worst customer…read moreservice of the 28 distilleries we visited, the female bartender (red hair, black glasses) was the rudest bartender I have met in my 20 years of being in hospitality. When we walked in, she glared at us as if we had interrupted something. She didn't greet us, didn't ask what we'd like to try, only gave us one word answers to any question that we asked. Never once smiled or tried to engage us. My friend was so frustrated with trying to get information from her that he stood up and almost walked out. I kept trying to engage her and even complemented her cute dress. Nothing. Stone face. I wanted to try the amaro flight and asked for it. She prepared it, set it in front of me, and said "so you'll want to close out now?" I told her "yes, that would be great, when I'm finished with my tasting". She proceeded to lean up against the bar with her back to us and didn't say another word. I had to get up and walk to the register, and when she finally turned around, I asked her "have we done something to upset you?" She said "no, why?" I said "because you seem REALLY annoyed that we're here". Her only response was to turn the register screen around and tell me the total. I'm so sad about this because I really wanted to taste other items and get a cocktail, but she was SO unpleasant and we felt SO unwelcome., Seeing all of the other great reviews, I can only imagine that they were with other people. I wish those other bartenders had been there.

They sell bottles of varying sizes at the bar and also at other places around town, including Total Wine. We love that they offer sampler flights with different liquors and also different size pours. They give you a tray with a sheet that describes the flavor profile for each offering. We also were given slushy samples and a customized gin sample, mixed with another shot to sip. We ordered slushies to enjoy on the patio and a flight with Hi Rye Whiskey, Ginferous Gin (favorite!), Uproot Gin, and Barrel Rested Cacoa Liqueur. I can't believe the differing flavors they can produce within the same type of booze. Masterful! The bartenders are friendly and so dang knowledgable. We purchased a bottle of Ginferous Gin and have kept the party going at home. Can't wait to go back! What a cool spot.

They were incredibly friendly, and really took the time to explain the different wines and help us figure out what we liked best. The tasting itself was so much fun and definitely the highlight. There's a wide variety of wines to try, especially if you enjoy sweeter, fruity flavors. Everything we sampled was actually really good, flavorful, and unique, you can tell they put a lot of love into what they make. Overall, it was a fun, memorable stop and something we would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting the area. We will definitely be coming back!

So my wife ended up getting nothing and we just left. Other establishments have accepted it as well as the entire state of Virginia, so it appears to be a specific rule for them. Respect, but I would recommend saving the time and your money and go elsewhere, which is what I recommended to our larger group when they were gonna go there. Would hate for them to get there there and get denied service "sorry we can't accept IDs where the default font is times new roman" or something, as there is clearly some weird rules here.
