Jack Daniel Distillery

In Lynchburg, Moore County, Tennessee. It was founded by Jack Daniel; the label says "Est. & Reg. in 1866", though official registration records date it to 1875. Moore County remains a dry county.

Jack Daniel learned to distil from Nathan "Nearest" Green, an enslaved-born master distiller who is credited with teaching him the Lincoln County Process of filtering through sugar maple charcoal — the step that sets Tennessee whiskey apart from bourbon.

Brown-Forman has owned it since 1956.
