It is produced in Lynchburg, Tennessee, by the Jack Daniel Distillery, which has been owned by the Brown - Forman Corporation since 1956. Jack Daniel 's home county of Moore is a dry county, so the product is not available for purchase at stores or restaurants within the county. The product meets the regulatory criteria for classification as a straight bourbon, though the company disavows this classification. It markets the liquor simply as Tennessee whiskey rather than as Tennessee bourbon. As defined in the North American Free Trade Agreement, Tennessee Whiskey is classified as a straight bourbon authorized to be produced in the state of Tennessee. Tennessee law ( 57 - 2 - 106 ) further requires most producers of Tennessee whiskey to filter the spirit through charcoal made from maple prior to aging, in addition to meeting the above requirements ( the `` Lincoln County Process '' ). Packaged in square bottles, Jack Daniel 's `` Black Label '' Tennessee whiskey sold 12.5 million cases in the 2017 fiscal year, which ended on April 30, 2017. Other brand variations, such as Tennessee Honey, Gentleman Jack, and Tennessee Fire, added another 2.9 million cases to sales. Sales of an additional 800,000 equivalent cases in ready - to - drink ( RTD ) products brought the fiscal year total to more than 16.1 million equivalent adjusted cases for the entire Jack Daniel 's family of brands.

The company website says it is customary to celebrate his birthday in September. The Tennessee state library website said in 2013 that records list his birth date as September 5, 1846, and that the 1850 birth date seems impossible since his mother died in 1847. In the 2004 biography Blood & Whiskey : The Life and Times of Jack Daniel, author Peter Krass said his investigation showed that Daniel was born in January 1849 ( based on Jack 's sister 's diary, census records, and the date of death of Jack 's mother ). Jack was the youngest of 10 children born to his mother, Lucinda ( Cook ) Daniel, and father Calaway Daniel. After Lucinda 's death, his father remarried and had three more children. Calaway Daniel 's father, Joseph `` Job '' Daniel, emigrated from Wales to the United States with his Scottish wife, the former Elizabeth Calaway. Jack Daniels ' ancestry included English, and Scots - Irish as well. Jack did not get along with his stepmother. After Daniel 's father died in the Civil War, the boy ran away from home and was essentially orphaned at a young age. Career Statue of Jack Daniel in front of the spring from which he drew the water for producing his whiskey. The current production uses water drawn from about 150 yards further back from the grotto. ( Jack Daniel 's Distillery, Lynchburg, Tennessee ) As a teenager, Daniel was taken in by Dan Call, a local lay preacher and moonshine distiller. He began learning the distilling trade from Call and his Master Distiller, Nathan `` Nearest '' Green, an enslaved African - American man. Green continued to work with Call after emancipation. In 1875, on receiving an inheritance from his father 's estate ( following a long dispute with his siblings ), Daniel founded a legally registered distilling business with Call. He took over the distillery shortly afterward when Call quit for religious reasons. The brand label on the product says `` Est. & Reg. in 1866 '', but his biographer has cited official registration documents in asserting that the business was not established until 1875. After taking over the distillery, in 1884 Daniel purchased the hollow and land where the distillery is now located. By the 1880s, Jack Daniel 's was one of 15 distilleries operating in Moore County, and the second-most productive behind Tom Eaton 's Distillery. He began using square - shaped bottles in 1897, with the square shape of the bottle intended to convey a sense of fairness and integrity. According to Daniel 's biographer, the origin of the `` Old No. 7 '' brand name was the number assigned to Daniel 's distillery for government registration. He was forced to change the registration number when the federal government redrew the district, and he became Number 16 in district 5 instead of No. 7 in district 4. However, he continued to use his original number as a brand name, since his brand reputation already had been established. Jack Daniel 's had a surge in popularity after the whiskey received the gold medal for the finest whiskey at the 1904 St. Louis World 's Fair. Daniel 's local reputation was suffering as the temperance movement was gaining strength in Tennessee. Jack Daniel never married and did not have any known children. He took his nephews under his wing -- one of whom was Lemuel `` Lem '' Motlow ( 1869 -- 1947 ). Lem, a son of Daniel 's sister, Finetta, was skilled with numbers. He soon was responsible for all of the distillery 's bookkeeping. In 1907, due to failing health, Jack Daniel gave the distillery to two of his nephews. Motlow soon bought out the other nephew. He operated the distillery for about 40 years. Ad for Old No. 7 from a May 1908 issue of The Nashville Globe Tennessee passed a statewide prohibition law in 1910, effectively barring the legal distillation of Jack Daniel 's within the state. Motlow challenged the law in a test case that eventually worked its way to the Tennessee Supreme Court. The court upheld the law as constitutional. Daniel died in 1911 from blood poisoning. An oft - told tale is that the infection began in one of his toes, which Daniel injured one early morning at work by kicking his safe in anger when he could not get it open ( he was said to always have had trouble remembering the combination ). But Daniel 's modern biographer has asserted that this account is not true. Because of prohibition in Tennessee, the company shifted its distilling operations to St Louis, Missouri, and Birmingham, Alabama. None of the production from these locations was ever sold due to quality problems. The Alabama operation was halted following a similar statewide prohibition law in that state, and the St. Louis operation was halted by the onset of nationwide prohibition following passage of the Eighteenth Amendment in 1920. While the passage of the Twenty - first Amendment in 1933 repealed prohibition at the federal level, state prohibition laws ( including Tennessee 's ) remained in effect, thus preventing the Lynchburg distillery from reopening. Motlow, who had become a Tennessee state senator, led efforts to repeal these laws, which allowed production to restart in 1938. The five - year gap between national repeal and Tennessee repeal was commemorated in 2008 with a gift pack of two bottles, one for the 75th anniversary of the end of prohibition and a second commemorating the 70th anniversary of the reopening of the distillery. The replica home of Lem Motlow, proprietor of Jack Daniel 's from 1911 to 1947 ; the original home was demolished in 2005 and rebuilt to the likeness of Lem Motlow 's house at Jack Daniel 's Distillery in Lynchburg The Jack Daniel 's distillery ceased operations from 1942 to 1946 when the U.S. government banned the manufacture of whiskey due to World War II. Motlow resumed production of Jack Daniel 's in 1947 after good - quality corn was again available. Motlow died the same year. He bequeathed the distillery to his children, Robert, Reagor, Dan, Conner, and Mary, upon his death. The company was later incorporated as `` Jack Daniel Distillery, Lem Motlow, Prop., Inc. '' This has allowed the company to continue to include Lem Motlow, who died in 1947, in its marketing. Mentioning him in the advertising is technically just citing the full corporate name. Likewise, the advertisements continue to use Lynchburg 's 1960s - era population figure of 361, though the city has since formed a consolidated city - county government with Moore County. Its official population is more than 6,000, according to the 2010 census. The company was sold to the Brown - Forman Corporation in 1956. The Jack Daniel 's Distillery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. In 2012, a Welshman, Mark Evans, claimed to have discovered the original recipe for Daniel 's whiskey, in a book written in 1853 by his great - great - grandmother. Her brother - in - law had emigrated to Tennessee. Moore County, where the Jack Daniel 's distillery is located, is one of the state 's many dry counties. While it is legal to distill the product within the county, it is illegal to purchase it there. However, a state law has provided one exception : a distillery may sell one commemorative product, regardless of county statutes. Jack Daniel 's now sells Gentleman Jack, Jack Daniel 's Single Barrel, the original No. 7 blend ( in a commemorative bottle ), and a seasonal blend ( on rotation ) at the distillery 's White Rabbit Bottle Shop. Recent history Lowering to 80 proof Until 1987, Jack Daniel 's black label was historically produced at 90 U.S. proof ( 45 % alcohol by volume ). The lower - end green label product was 80 proof. However, starting in 1987, the other label variations also were reduced in proof. This began with black label being initially reduced to 86 proof. Both the black and green label expressions are made from the same ingredients ; the difference is determined by professional tasters, who decide which of the batches would be sold under the `` premium '' black label, with the rest being sold as `` standard '' green label. A further dilution began in 2002 when all generally available Jack Daniel 's products were reduced to 80 proof ( including the black label, which had been 86 proof since 1987 and was 90 proof before that ), thus further lowering production costs and excise taxes. This reduction in alcohol content, which was done without any announcement, publicity or change of logo or packaging, was noticed and condemned by Modern Drunkard Magazine, and the magazine formed a petition drive for drinkers who disagreed with the change. The company countered that they believed consumers preferred lower - proof products, and said that the change had not hurt the sales of the brand. The petition effort garnered some publicity and collected more than 13,000 signatures, but the company held firm with its decision. A few years later, Advertising Age said in 2005 that `` virtually no one noticed '' the change, and confirmed that sales of the brand had actually increased since the dilution began ( though it does not suppose any causes for that increase ). Jack Daniel 's has also produced higher - proof special releases and premium - brand expressions at times. A one - time limited run of 96 proof, the highest proof Jack Daniel 's had ever bottled at that time, was bottled for the 1996 Tennessee Bicentennial in a decorative bicentennial bottle. The distillery debuted its 94 proof `` Jack Daniel 's Single Barrel '' in February 1997. The Silver Select Single Barrel was formerly the company 's highest proof at 100, but is available only in duty - free shops. Now, there are ' single barrel barrel proof ' editions, ranging from 125 -- 140 proof. Sales and brand value status Jack Daniel 's Black Label Tennessee Whiskey remains the flagship product of Brown - Forman Corporation. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, the product had sales of 12.5 million cases. Underlying net sales for the Jack Daniel 's brand grew by 3 % ( − 1 % on a reported basis ). Tennessee Honey and Tennessee Fire were also solid contributors to the total underlying net sales growth of 3 % ( flat on a reported basis ) for the Jack Daniel 's family of brands. They grew underlying net sales by 4 % and 14 % ( 3 % and 18 % on a reported basis ), respectively. Premium brand Gentleman Jack grew underlying net sales mid-single digits, while the RTD / RTP segment increased underlying net sales by 6 % ( 3 % on a reported basis ). In the IWSR 2013 World Class Brands rankings of wine and spirits brands, Jack Daniel 's was ranked third on the global level. More recently, in 2017, it ranked at number 16 on the IWSR 's Real 100 Spirits Brands Worldwide list. Additionally, the brand evaluation consultancy Intangible Business ranked Jack Daniel 's fourth on its Power 100 Spirits and Wine list in both 2014 and 2015. Sponsorships Kelly Racing Holden Commodore VE of Todd Kelly at the 2010 Clipsal 500 Adelaide From 2006 until 2015, Jack Daniel 's sponsored V8 Supercar teams Perkins Engineering and Kelly Racing. Jack Daniel 's also sponsored the Richard Childress Racing 07 car ( numbered after the `` Old No. 7 '' ) in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series from 2005 to 2009. Jack Daniel 's also sponsors Zac Brown Band 's tours. Master distillers Jeff Arnett, a company employee since 2001, became Jack Daniel 's master distiller in 2008. He is the seventh person to hold the position in the distillery 's history. His predecessor, Jimmy Bedford, held the position for 20 years. Bedford retired in mid-2008 after being the subject of a $3.5 million sexual harassment lawsuit against the company that ended in an out - of - court settlement, and he died on August 7, 2009, after suffering a heart attack at his home in Lynchburg. Other former Master Distillers include Jess Motlow ( 1911 -- 41 ), Lem Tolley ( 1941 -- 64 ), Jess Gamble ( 1964 -- 66 ), and Frank Bobo ( 1966 -- 92 ). Tennessee squires A Tennessee Squire is a member of the Tennessee Squire Association, which was formed in 1956 to honor special friends of the Jack Daniel 's distillery. Many prominent business and entertainment professionals are included among the membership, which is obtained only through recommendation of a current member. Squires receive a wallet card and deed certificate proclaiming them as `` owner '' of an unrecorded plot of land at the distillery and an honorary citizen of Moore County, Tennessee. Production process Making charcoal at the distillery, ca. 1920 -- 35 The mash for Jack Daniel 's is made from corn, rye, and malted barley, and is distilled in copper stills. It is then filtered through 10 - foot ( 3.0 m ) stacks of sugar maple charcoal. The company refers to this filtering step as `` mellowing ''. This extra step, known as the Lincoln County Process, removes impurities and the taste of corn. The company argues this extra step makes the product different from bourbon. However, Tennessee whiskey is required to be `` a straight Bourbon Whiskey '' under terms of the North American Free Trade Agreement and Canadian law. A distinctive aspect of the filtering process is that the Jack Daniel 's brand grinds its charcoal before using it for filtering. After the filtering, the whiskey is stored in newly handcrafted oak barrels, which give the whiskey its color and most of its flavor. The product label mentions that it is a `` sour mash '' whiskey, which means that when the mash is prepared, some of the wet solids from a previously used batch are mixed in to help make the fermentation process operate more consistently. This is common practice in American whiskey production. ( As of 2005, all currently produced straight bourbon is produced using the sour mash process. ) After being used for the aging of Jack Daniel 's whiskey, many barrels go to Scotland to be used in the production of Scotch whisky. Some barrels are leased from Glenmorangie distillery. Some of the barrels are sold to McIlhenny Company of Avery Island, Louisiana, for production of Tabasco sauce and to both the Mount Gay Rum company of Barbados and Appleton Estate of Jamaica for use in the aging process of their distinctively flavored rums. Some barrels are also cut in half and shipped to Lowe 's Home Centers to be used as planter pots. They retain the whiskey smell for some time after arriving there and must be watered every couple of days to keep them intact before they are sold and filled with soil. Legal status On a state level, Tennessee has imposed stringent requirements. To be labeled as Tennessee Whiskey, it is not enough under state law that the whiskey be produced in Tennessee ; it must meet quality and production standards. These are the same standards used by Jack Daniel 's Distillery, and some other distillers are displeased with the requirements being enshrined into law. On May 13, 2013, Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam signed House Bill 1084, requiring the Lincoln County process to be used for products produced in the state labeling themselves as `` Tennessee Whiskey '', with a particular exception tailored to exempt Benjamin Prichard 's, and including the existing requirements for bourbon. As federal law requires statements of origin on labels to be accurate, the Tennessee law effectively gives a firm definition to Tennessee whiskey, requiring Tennessee origin, maple charcoal filtering by the Lincoln County process prior to aging, and the basic requirements of bourbon ( at least 51 % corn, new oak barrels, charring of the barrels, and limits on alcohol by volume concentration for distillation, aging, and bottling ). In 2014, legislation was introduced in the Tennessee legislature that would modify the 2013 law to allow the reuse of oak barrels in the Tennessee whiskey aging process. Jack Daniel 's Master Distiller Jeff Arnett vehemently opposed the legislation, arguing the reuse of barrels would require the use of artificial colorings and flavorings, and would render Tennessee whiskey an inferior product to scotches and bourbons. The company was the subject of a proposal to locally surtax its product in 2011. It was claimed that the distillery, the main employer in a company town, had capitalized on the bucolic image of Lynchburg, Tennessee, and it ought to pay a tax of $10 per barrel. The company responded that such a tax is a confiscatory imposition penalizing it for the success of the enterprise. The proposed tax faced a vote by the Metro Lynchburg - Moore County Council and was defeated 10 - 5.

Series bottling Scenes From Lynchburg ( 1998 -- ) : Around 1998 the company started to sell the first 1 - liter bottle in a new bottle line called the `` Scenes from Lynchburg ''. This first bottle was sold only in Europe. It was to include seven different bottles with a little picture / drawing of something -- a scene -- from Lynchburg. Almost every year a new bottle was made and sold around airports in Europe. Around 2001 the company started selling the same designed bottles in a 750 - ml version in Canada, also trying to bring out a new bottle each year. In 2003 the first U.S. version was sold exclusively in Lynchburg also in a 750 - ml version with 43 % proof whiskey instead of the 40 % used in Canada. What started as a bottle line of seven bottles expanded to a total of 12 scenes in the 1 - liter size, eight in the 750 - ml size, and three for Canada. The series appears to have ended.

Master Distiller Series ( 2012 -- ) : This line is meant to honor the seven men who have held the position of master distiller in the company 's history. This is bottled with 86 proof whiskey. The second bottle in the series honoring Jess Motlow was released in 2013 with an error on the bottle. The error is a misprint of service dates as 1911 -- 44 ; Motlow served only until 1941. The distillery recalled shipments and it is believed only 200 cases were sold in Tennessee and international locations. The corrected bottle was released a few months later. Distillery The Jack Daniel Distillery in Lynchburg is situated in and around a hollow known as `` Stillhouse Hollow '' or `` Jack Daniel 's Hollow '', where a spring flows from a cave at the base of a limestone cliff. The limestone removes iron from the water, making it ideal for distilling whiskey ( water heavy in iron gives whiskey a bad taste ). The spring feeds into nearby East Fork Mulberry Creek, which is part of the Elk River watershed. Some 1.9 million barrels containing the aging whiskey are stored in several dozen barrelhouses, some of which adorn the adjacent hilltops and are visible throughout Lynchburg. The distillery is a major tourist attraction, drawing more than a quarter of a million visitors annually. The visitor center, dedicated in June 2000, contains memorabilia related to the distillery and a gift shop. Paid tours of the distillery are conducted several times per day and a premium sampling tour is also offered. In February 2016, a $140 million expansion was announced for the distillery. The company will be expanding the visitors center and adding two new barrel houses. Cocktails A Jack Daniel 's Cocktail Jack Daniel 's is the alcoholic component of `` Jack and Coke '', a common cocktail. In January 2016, Food and Beverage magazine dubbed the drink `` The Lemmy '' in honor of rock bassist Lemmy who died in December 2015, as it was his regular drink. The `` Jack and Coke '' is also sometimes called `` The Long Island '' Jack Daniel 's is also the alcoholic component of `` Lynchburg Lemonade ''. Jack Daniel 's is a common choice for the Tennessee Whiskey component of the `` Three Wise Men ''. Gallery National Register of Historic Places Founder Jack Daniel Whiskey barrels in the distillery Inside the barrels Cultural references Dave Lewis - `` Jack Daniel 's Green '' Notable drinkers of Jack Daniel 's Frank Sinatra was widely known as a Jack Daniel 's drinker. He was buried with a bottle of Jack Daniel 's Old Number 7 in 1998. Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead cited Jack Daniel 's as his drink of choice. Often in media appearances he would be seen drinking Jack Daniel 's and Coke, and he reportedly drank a whole bottle every day for 38 years. Michael Anthony, bass guitarist for the rock band Van Halen, was noted for drinking from a bottle of Jack Daniel 's Old Number 7 between songs during concerts. By the end of the show, the bottle would be empty. He has an electric bass guitar that resembles a bottle of Jack Daniel 's Old Number 7. Members of the heavy metal band Pantera were Jack Daniel 's drinkers. Notably, the cover of their 1997 live album Official Live : 101 Proof was styled like the label of a Jack Daniel 's bottle.
