Corsair is more than a tasting room. Its Marathon Village location combines an active distillery, a 30-minute guided tour, five spirit tastings, and a taproom where you can linger afterward. Choose your Corsair Distillery tour time first, then we’ll build the chauffeured itinerary around that reservation, including your pickup and any other stops that day. You book the tour admission directly with Corsair.

Corsair operates its Marathon Distillery & Taproom at 1200 Clinton Street #110, inside Nashville’s Marathon Village. The setting offers an unusual combination: a distillery housed inside a former automobile manufacturing complex, just minutes from downtown Nashville.

What Happens During Corsair Distillery Tours?

Corsair describes its Nashville operation as the city’s first craft distillery since Prohibition. During the tour, the guide walks you through its grain-to-glass production, including a 1920s pot still, and then pours the spirits for your tasting.

A few numbers are worth noting as you choose a date. Corsair lists a maximum standard tour capacity of 14 guests but asks larger single groups to contact the distillery in advance to discuss arrangements. The tasting version costs $18 per person, while the non-tasting option costs $10. Children under 12 can join for free. Anyone consuming spirits must be 21 or older and present valid, non-expired government-issued photo identification.

Before You Book

Corsair currently recommends booking in advance, especially for weekends and busier seasons. It also states that bookings of five guests or fewer require at least 24 hours’ notice for a refund, while groups of six or more require 48 hours.

What to Do Before or After Your Corsair Tour

When Corsair is part of your Nashville tasting day, Marathon Village can be more than a single stop.

At Marathon Village, Corsair’s space goes beyond the tour:

On-site: Corsair also serves craft cocktails, local beer, and fresh-baked pizza alongside its tasting bar and bottle shop.
Hours: Current public hours run from noon to 7 p.m. Monday and Wednesday through Sunday, with Tuesday closed.
Tour times: Public tours run hourly from 1 p.m. through 5 p.m. on operating days, with an additional 6 p.m. tour on Saturday.

The surrounding Marathon Village complex also gives you shops, food stops, and historic displays to explore on the same outing.

That leaves several ways to spend the rest of the day:

Compare another producer: Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery also operates in the Marathon Village area, giving whiskey enthusiasts a second perspective on Nashville distilling.
Change the flavor entirely: if spirits are only part of what interests you, add a winery to another portion of your Tennessee plans.
Finish over dinner: name the restaurant when you book the outing, and we make it the final chauffeured stop rather than treating the tasting as the end of the day.

Flying Into Nashville Before Your Corsair Tour?

Nashville International Airport (BNA) lies east of downtown Nashville, so visitors flying in for a Nashville weekend can make an airport pickup the first leg of a Corsair itinerary.

If you book the Corsair Distillery tour for the same day as your flight, leave generous margins between the two reservations.

Baggage claim, customs and immigration when applicable, and the drive from BNA all have to happen before the tour begins.

Share these details with us:

your flight number and arrival time;
where you are heading after leaving BNA;
your confirmed Corsair booking;
whether a hotel check-in falls between the airport and tasting;
your next destination after Marathon Village.

If your Corsair tour falls on a different day from your flight, we can simply start the itinerary from your Nashville hotel or another local pickup point.

Small Details That Smooth Out the Visit

A few choices at booking time decide how easily the day runs:

Where we drop you off: Let us know whether you want to step out right at Corsair’s door or elsewhere in Marathon Village to explore first.
Time at the taproom: Mention it up front if you would like to spend a while at the taproom after the tour, so we can allow for it on the way back.
Return pickup: If you want transportation after the tasting, confirm the next destination when arranging the itinerary, whether that is your hotel, a restaurant, or another stop.

Choose the Vehicle Around the Tasting Day You Have in Mind

Corsair might be the main reason you are heading to Marathon Village, or it might be one stop on a longer Tennessee Whiskey Trail tour.

We then match the vehicle to the kind of outing you picture:

Keeping it to a simple Corsair visit? Our Sedans accommodate up to three passengers, giving a couple or small party a private option from the hotel to Marathon Village and back.
Turning Clinton Street into a longer tasting afternoon? Our SUVs seat up to six passengers, a good fit for a group of friends spending the whole afternoon in Marathon Village and beyond.
Bringing a bigger group along? Our Sprinter Limousines carry up to 12 passengers, with enough room for a celebration that begins at Corsair or an itinerary connecting several Tennessee distilleries from the same starting point.
