Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey 1.75L Iconic Tennessee whiskey from a distiller with over 140 years experience. Ironically the Jack Daniels distillery is located in one of Tennessee's dry counties, meaning it is illegal for them to sell their product at the place where it is made. Jack Daniels was renowned for forgetting the combination to his safe. One morning his frustration spilled over and he gave the safe a firm kick. The injury his toe sustained turned into an infection, which caused blood poisoning, which took his life.
