The Jack Daniel's 1954 Gold Medal Series 43% ABV 1000ml is the sixth edition in this esteemed collection, honoring the 1954 Brussels Belgium Star of Excellence. This special bottling is a tribute to the enduring legacy of Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey, which has earned numerous international gold medals for excellence since its inception.
The story behind this bottle dates back to a letter received by Reagor Motlow, one of Lem's sons, about a whisky judging contest in Brussels, Belgium. The task of handling the matter was delegated to Herb Fanning, who pulled the first three bottles from the production line and sent them off to the competition. When the advertising team questioned why he hadn't looked for special whisky, Herb famously replied, "Why all Jack Daniel's is special!"
This whisky is a testament to the unwavering faith and love of the people behind the Jack Daniel's brand, as embodied by Herb Fanning, a beloved and well-known figure in Lynchburg. The whiskey's rich history can be traced back to Jasper 'Jack' Daniel, who learned the art of distilling from a local preacher and moonshiner, Dan Call, and his slave, Nathan 'Nearest' Green. Green's descendants have continued the tradition of working at the distillery for seven generations.
This limited edition bottling is a must-have for any whiskey connoisseur, showcasing the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that has made Jack Daniel's the top-selling American whiskey in the world. The whiskey is presented in a 1000ml bottle, with an alcohol content of 43%, and is housed in a presentation box.
