Anyone who enjoys a drink now and again will have tried Jack Daniels. The smooth, sweet sour mash alcohol has earned a reputation for quality and taste for more than 150 years.
Invented in Tennessee in a distillery founded in the 1870s, the Tennessee whiskey made the distillery’s founders, including the eponymous Jack Daniel himself, rich men. But it seems, at least with the founder, all this money could not buy common sense.
Jack Daniel may have had it all, but all it took was one moment of ill-tempered stupidity to take it all away.
