Before the Civil War, distilleries were not required to register with the federal government. But in 1866, Congress passed legislation that required registration. Mr. Jack, being the forward-thinking man he was, made sure he was first in line, and that's why the Jack Daniel Distillery is still listed in the federal record books as Distillery No. 1, This 1L decanter, released in 1990, celebrates the 125th Anniversary of Americas Oldest Registered Distillery and pays tribute to its founder.

Distillery Information
Jack Daniel's is the highest-selling American whiskey brand in the world. The iconic black label whiskey meets the regulations to be labeled as a straight Bourbon, but is sold simply as a Tennessee whiskey. Jack Daniel's has been owned by the Brown-Forman Corporation since 1956. Quite when the company was founded by the eponymous Jack Daniel is a matter for debate, and in fact many of the details surrounding Daniel himself are relatively murky. Although the label suggests 1866 as a start date, official records cited by Daniel's biographer suggest the year was 1875. The "Old No.7" branding is said to refer to the original federal government registration of the distillery, which was number seven in District Four. In the early 20th Century, Jack Daniel's was struggling against the local temperance movement, and gained a major boost in markets further afield in 1904 when it won a gold medal at the St. Louis World's Fair. In 1909, Tennessee was made a dry state, and the company moved to St. Louis until a deal was brokered allowing whiskey production in Tennessee to be sold in other states. Moore County, Lynchburg, where the distillery is located, is still a dry area. Therefore it is not actually possible to purchase Jack Daniel's at local stores and restaurants.
