The SCVB team had the sweetest time visiting our friends at and Executive Director, Cindy Sutton even got to spend a moment with the famous donkeys who love greeting guests. 🫏💛

We were there to preview the return of one of Statesville’s most beloved seasonal spirits: Southern Star Bourbon Finished in Honey Barrels. Last year’s release sold out in just one day, and this year’s batch is expected to go just as fast.

You can pick up a bottle at the Southern Distilling Tasting Room or select ABC stores across North Carolina.
🥃 108.4 proof
🍯 Finished in wildflower-honey-soaked barrels
🌼 Notes of butterscotch, toasted oak, toffee, delicate honey & floral warmth
🎁 Perfect for gifting or treating yourself

To celebrate the holidays, the Tasting Room is also serving four specialty honey-kissed cocktails, including their standout creation, “The Buzz.”

Whether you’re visiting Statesville or you’re lucky enough to call it home, this is your sign to get yours before they disappear again.
