    A slave contributed to creating Jack Daniel's whiskey
  • A slave by the name of Nearis Green is said to have been responsible for the creation of America's favourite whiskey, Jack Daniel's.

    Until today, for 150 years, Rev. Dan Call, a Lutheran preacher in Lynchburg was acknowledged as the man who taught young Jack Daniel to distill whiskey.

    The company now claims that it was Rev. Call's slave who provided his expertise.

    He was of Scots-Irish, Scottish and Welsh descent; his grandfather was born in Wales, and his grandmother in Scotland.
