I went when I was a kid. It was pretty cool then. I think it would be even cooler now though since I drink whiskey. Only bad thing about it is that Jack Daniels is actually distilled in a dry county. For you non bible belters that is an entire county where you can not buy alcohol. So, no sampling.
I went last year and it was worth it. Outside of learning about he booze the whole place is pretty scenic and it doesn't take very long. I'd say give it a go.
It's a fun side trip. I would definitely recommend it.
Sad thing is, Lynchburg is in a dry county. The only samples they offer are lemonade, but they got an exemption from the state to be able to sell their alcoholic wares on-site.
It's a really fun tour. Depending on how much time you have, the George Dickel factory in Tullahoma and the Pritchard's Rum factory in Fayetteville (one city over on each side) also offer tours. MUCH smaller scale than the JD tour, but interesting. And Pritchard's Sweet Lucy rum is one of the best things you'll ever taste.
We did it a couple of times in our way home from Bonnaroo. It's a cool place and very pretty....and if nothing else does, getting to take a picture with the big Jack Daniels statue makes it worth your while!

I live in Lynchburg. The tour is free and most definitely worth the short drive from Manchester. We are doing rides and tour info very reasonably priced. We are just good hearted local people helping others and trying to make a little money without overcharging. The number to call is 931-639-6390. My name is Tim. We give you taxi rides and help at a more reasonable price.
