Arrived in Tennessee about midday, felt like we had gone back in time, teh town Lynchburg (where the JD distillery is) hadnt changed one bit.
Take a look at this sweet ford model T that was used to transport the barrells.
The distillery was free to go around in and this classic looking whiskey drinking guy called randy took us for our toor (on the right)
We were taken to the place where the yeast is fermented and the proof is %140, ive never experienced anything like this, the smell was so intense, literally it made you jump back when you took a whiff!
Whilst on that note, you stand anywhere in Lynchburg and their is such a sweet smell in the air, its beautiful man!Here is a photo of me with Jack
The size of the storage room was huge, im sure james would love to work here!
In the gift shop I found this Indy Car that's sponsored by Jack :) 
After the tour of teh distillery we went into the town and had a lovely meal at this old restaraunt where we made a box of Trek america for teh roof of teh restaraunt. The law in Lynchburg is that you can only purchase JD from the distillery and maximum of 4 bottles, you cant drink JD at all.I went into the original JD gift shoppe and baught a t-shirt and a gift for james, the woman gave me a free JD glass :D
