Nope, for a while (and possibly still) Jim Beam operated three distinct distilleries, far apart, and mixed the whiskies however they wished to fill their bottles sold under various labels.? Some brands ALWAYS came from one distillery, but others did not.? This might have been what Davin was trying to remember...



Slainte!

There is only one Jack Daniels distillery. Don't bourbons and Tennessee whiskies have to come from a single distillery??

Something labelled "American whisky" could come from anywhere, I would think.?
