After 150 years, Jack Daniels has finally revealed that a slave was behind the world-famous recipe of America's most popular whisky.

Until now, the story told was that a white moonshine distiller named Dan Call had taught his young apprentice, Jasper Newton 'Jack' Daniel, how to run his Tennessee distillery.

You would think that since some in this ethnic group claim that their ancestors were the ones who REALLY built America, Liberia would be a First World showplace. What gives?

Islay whisky is an acquired taste. Some can't stand it and for some of us every little sip is like hearing a piper play Scotland the Brave.

I’ve been enjoying Jameson’s Caskmates, Irish (duh!) whiskey seasoned in a cask formerly holding Stout.

Exactly.
Liberia should be a complete utopia with no influence from Whitey.
Also,given that 95% of the Africans in the trans atlantic slave trade went to South America.... it should be another paradise.

Guess what?

It too looks like just another African shitole.

I dunno if you have ever seen Vice’s Guide to Liberia up on Youtube....

And you know, NO one EVER mentions the 1400 years of Mohammedan slave trade. If you want an eye opener, look up trans sahara slave trade.

I canno understand for one moment how or why a blackman would EVER want to be a muslim.
If any of them could spend a moment learning some history, the world would be a different place.
How about just one? They make good parrots!

Almost all dry counties in Kentucky used to be dry. Nelson County in Bardstown was dry. I went to WKU an Bowling Green was wet and the county was dry.
