Fun Facts

Despite being one of the most famous whiskey producers, Lynchburg, Tennessee, where the distillery is located, prohibits the sale of alcohol due to its status as a dry county.

The distillery was founded by Jasper Newton 'Jack' Daniel in 1866, making it the oldest registered distillery in the United States.

The distillery uses iron-free cave spring water from a limestone cave on the property, which is crucial to the whiskey's distinct flavor.

The origin of the 'Old No. 7' label remains a mystery, with theories ranging from a lucky number to a reference to a train route.

The whiskey undergoes a unique charcoal mellowing process, known as the Lincoln County Process, which filters the spirit through sugar maple charcoal before aging.

The distillery crafts its own barrels from American white oak, which are then charred to enhance the whiskey's flavor during aging.

Held in Lynchburg, this prestigious barbecue competition attracts teams from around the world, celebrating the art of barbecue and whiskey.

The distillery is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, recognizing its importance in American industrial history.
