Brisko Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 The whole "Is Jack Daniels bourbon?" thing is a serious case of muddy water. The fact that Brown-Forman doesn't seem sure about it either just adds extra mud. I'm not sure if it's B/F or the TTB. There have been quite a few inconsistencies in the way products are coded (bourbon, straight bourbon, bourbon BIB, etc.) for the same products, as well as outright mistakes. My favorite is this single barrel Willett rye that's listed as CT 132-- blended rye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickWrightson Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I asked a friend, who is a retired TTB agent, and he said that the TTB puts in the class and type, so JD is not the culprit. Circa 2003, TTB stopped requiring, or letting, the applicant to make the choice, i.e., applicants entering the class and type on the on the application. The TTB makes the decision for the applicant.

squire Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I expect Brown Forman is content to let the public perception of Jack alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdery Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 There can be negotiations but the TTB has the final say, even if it's dead wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
