Fun Fact of the day: Jack Daniel鈥檚 whiskey was created by an enslaved black man
You might be familiar with Jack Daniel鈥檚 Whiskey brand but it was a black man named Nathan 鈥淣earest鈥� Green who taught Jack Daniel an ancient African technique that filtered liquor through a charcoal mellowing system. This technique is what gives Jack Daniel鈥檚 Whiskey its rich flavor and taste. Now you might be familiar with brands such as Diddy鈥檚 Ciroc, which grosses $8 million a year, but today the Jack Daniel brand is owned by Brown-Forman Corporation and has a yearly income of $3 Billion. The company is currently trading at $52 a share.
