The Jack Daniel’s Experience 2010
Jack Daniel wasn’t just an enthusiast of fine whiskey; he was also a committed music lover, and in 1892 he had the idea of setting up his own band. After buying all the instruments for $300 and decorating the side of the drum with the Jack Daniel’s logo, Jack sent the band on tour to festivals and gatherings across the region. They weren’t professional musicians, but they ended up being so popular they toured for 20 years!
We agree with Jack’s theory that whiskey and fine music go together; that’s why the Jack Daniel’s Experience is coming to the UK this summer. Our authentic US truck will be packing probably the largest mobile bar in Europe. We also have a mellowing area where you can sit down, chill out and enjoy a glass of our smooth sippin’ Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whiskey, as well as the good old-fashioned taste of Tennessee home cooking at our charcoal barbecue grill.
