$1mil in Jack to go down the drain?

Hundreds of bottles of Jack Daniel's whiskey could be going down the drain because it may have been sold by somebody without a licence. That's the law.

The estimated value is $1mil, possibly driven up by the value of the antique bottles which include 3-liter bottles and one bottle — with an unbroken seal — dates back to 1914.

Wasting such a commodity would be a travesty.

 

Huh...

I thought this might bring together all of the whiskey drinkers here with feigned outrage and flat-out sarcasm. Oh well. Carry on.

 

Oh man. That sound you just heard was my dad hitting the floor after he fainted.

 

Once upon a time, Dad used to sell mobile homes in Middle Tennessee. One day, he came home with a story from a horrified co-worker. His fellow salesman, a committed drinker, had visited a couple at their trailer in Moore County, situated less than a mile upstream on the same creek that Jack Daniels uses as its water source.

They did not have indoor plumbing.

 

The ghost of John Belushi must really be pissed.

 

Amazing.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

After recently recieving a bottle of Zambuca that was at least 3 decades old, I cringe at the though of drinking a bottle of JD from 1916.

 

I wouldn't dare.

Just the fumes alone would you make fuckin drunck really.

 

See, I made the mistake of taking a shot of the Zambuca (normally one of my favorites). The night was pretty much a catastrophe from then on.

 

Maybe the person who decided to age that bottle 30 years would like the patch of black jelly beans I planted in my back yard when I was in preschool.
