Fontanel has announced a partnership with Prichard’s Distillery to establish a whiskey and rum facility on the 136 acre Fontanel property in the spring of next year.
“We have long wanted to partner with a craft distillery here at Fontanel,” stated Marc Oswald, co-owner of Fontanel. “We are beyond delighted with what the future holds for our two companies and the co-promotional opportunities the partnership represents.”
Benjamin Prichard of Davidson Country started the distillery five generations ago in 1822. The brand was revived 15 years ago by descendent Phil Prichard in Kelso, TN. Today it distributes to 48 states and eight European countries.
The Fontanel Mansion experience encompasses the Woods Amphitheater concert series, the Pepsi Studio Gallery, the Italian kitchen and wine bar at Cafe Fontanella, and free activities like Frisbee golf and two miles of walking trails. A Southern Living Idea House is under construction for 2013.
