$1 million in unlicensed liquor may be dumped
Tennessee officials seized 2,400 bottles of Jack Daniel’s whiskey in October raids. The estimated value of the liquor is $1 million. A pricey pouring?
NASHVILLE, Tenn. | Here’s a sobering thought: Hundreds of bottles of Jack Daniel’s whiskey, some of it almost 100 years old, may be unceremoniously poured down a drain because authorities suspect it was being sold by someone without a license.
Officials seized 2,400 bottles late last month in warehouse raids in Nashville and Lynchburg, the southern Tennessee town where the whiskey is distilled. Authorities are still determining how much of the liquor will be disposed of, and how much can be sold at auction. Tennessee law requires officials to destroy whiskey that cannot be sold legally in the state, such as bottles designed for sale overseas and those with broken seals.
“We’d pour it out,” said Danielle Elks, executive director of the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission.
The estimated value of the liquor is $1 million.
