You enjoy a good whiskey so I have to urge you to go to Nelson's Green Brier Distillery while you are in Nashville. Its downtown not far from Broadway St. They produce a Whiskey that they age in Sherry barrels, Belle Meade Sherry Bourbon they call it. Yes, I know true Bourbon is produced in Bourbon county KY. so lets not argue the point of what is Bourbon. Excellent spirit.
I also have to urge you to take the time to go to Jack Daniel's distillery while you are in Nashville. Its not that far for a good day trip and the tasting tour is very informative and educational on how to taste whiskies. My favorite is No. 27. Not cheap but worth it for enjoyment factor alone.
And yes, there is a legal definition of what is Tennessee whiskey, just like Bourbon.
