There is also nothing wasted from the distillery. Everything is reused in some way from food for livestock made from the mash residue, to the charcoal being sold for use in Bar-B-Q pits. We are currently investigating this charcoal that has enjoyed 140 proof JD wash over it for days on end.

There are 3 different stories as to what "Old No.7" stands for and the only one that knew for sure died many years ago.

That is just some of what I learned. You can take the tour on their website, but it is so much better in person. It is worth going out of way. I did enquire how the small fortune I have invested was used in the betterment of the distillery? Still waiting on an answer.

Everyone Ride Safe & enjoy a glass of Jack Daniels at the end of your journey.
