Besides the brand’s quintessential banana notes, it offers a sweet and fruit-forward palate that makes it stand out and constantly reminds you you’re drinking Jack. This is highlighted by their entry into rye production and how impressive their rye products have been out of the gate.Īs for the standard Jack Daniel’s, it's quite difficult to mistake it for another average budget whiskey due to its memorable nose and unique palate, which can probably be traced back to the Lincoln County Process. Jack Daniel’s has also been making whiskey for 150 years and it’s hard to argue that after perfecting their technique for so long, that they make poor products. Some may say that it hides flaws that would otherwise be more pronounced, but that is largely inconsequential as so many other brands use many different means of filtering. But the discussion always comes back to the Lincoln County Process. According to reports, the company is planning the construction of 14 more warehouses on the site – an indication of the rapid growth of the brand.īrown-Forman, the Louisville-based firm which owns Jack Daniel’s, has so far managed to avoid direct involvement in the legal action.īut Holleman said he expects his client to extend her action by pressing for the six functioning barrelhouses to halt production, a move that would inevitably ensnare the parent company.A lot of fun has been had arguing whether the standard Jack Daniel’s qualifies as bourbon or not. The chancellor of Lincoln county, JB Cox, has issued a court order temporarily stopping the building of the latest Jack Daniel’s barrelhouse.
But the angel’s share results in the devil’s fungus,” Holleman told the Lexington Herald Leader.
“In middle Tennessee and central Kentucky, if you go on a distillery tour, they proudly reference the angel’s share. Long’s lawyer, Jason Holleman, said the romance surrounding bourbon – the country music star Chris Stapleton sings in his blockbuster song, “You’re as smooth as Tennessee whiskey” – belies the real experiences of local people. Long told Insider she and her husband, Patrick, had to spend about $10,000 annually, power-washing their house four times a year with bleach. She demanded an air ventilation system to block ethanal vapour seeping from the Jack Daniel’s plant. In Tennessee, the Lincoln county complaint was raised by Christi Long, owner of a wedding and party venue who said the property was covered in hard-to-remove fungus. In the UK, a couple in Bonnybridge, Falkirk, sued the drinks giant Diageo for £40,000 in 2019. Lawsuits have been brought by residents in several countries complaining that the black mould smothers walls, outdoor furniture, cars, trees and road signs and has adversely affected their lives and harmed property values. Up to 2% of the volume of the alcohol can evaporate through the barrels each year as the drink matures, sending vapour into the air and encouraging the fungus. The fungus, Baudoinia compniacensis, is a familiar pest in the vicinity of barrelhouses which rely on wooden casks. The move came after the owner of an events venue next to six operating warehouses sued the local zoning office, saying the fungus was out of control and damaging her business. The spread of the fungus has become such a problem in Lincoln county, Tennessee, that a local court has halted construction of a new barrel warehouse for the world’s biggest-selling brand of American whiskey: Jack Daniel’s.
