1L TIME PIECE Limited Edition is specially designed packaging to commemorate the timeless craftsmanship of Jack Daniel’s. It's exclusive unique bottle design and packaging highlights the heritage and tradition of the distillery.
Crafted by Mr. Jack's own private recipe, Gentleman Jack was the first new whiskey from the Jack Daniel distillery in over 100 years. It is a distinctive smooth, rich whiskey, distilled and aged to perfection by the genuine good-natured folks at America's oldest distillery. But at the end of the day, what makes Gentleman Jack so unique is actually quite simple: Gentleman Jack is filtered over charcoal twice, once before and once after aged in charred oak barrels. The result is an extremely smooth. It was introduced to the U.S. market in 1988. The Gentleman Jack brand was introduced to strengthen the company's share among consumers who drink "finer" spirits!

Distillery History:
Crafting something that endures for over 150 years takes time and character. You’ll find plenty of both in the people and history that make Jack Daniel’s.
Jack Daniel’s Distillery, located in Lynchburg, Tennessee, has a rich history dating back to the mid-19th century. Jasper Newton “Jack” Daniel, the founder, was born in 1846. He learned the art of distilling from a local preacher and distiller named Dan Call. In 1866, Jack Daniel registered his distillery, making it the first registered distillery in the United States.
The distillery’s success grew rapidly, and Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey became renowned for its unique charcoal mellowing process, known as the Lincoln County Process. This method involves filtering the whiskey through charcoal made from sugar maple wood, giving it a distinct smoothness.
Jack Daniel passed away in 1911, and his nephew, Lem Motlow, took over the distillery. During Prohibition, the distillery faced significant challenges, including a temporary shutdown. However, it resumed production after the repeal of Prohibition.
In 1956, the distillery was sold to the Brown-Forman Corporation, which continues to produce Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey to this day. The brand has become iconic, known for its distinctive square bottles and black label, and remains a symbol of American whiskey craftsmanship.
Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 is the world’s best-selling Tennessee whiskey, and its fame comes more from its cultural icon status than from frequent big awards at competitions. That said, it has won awards, especially in the early days when its medals became part of its branding
The reason the bottle says “Old No. 7 — Gold Medal” is because Jack Daniel’s has famously touted its early competition wins:
Year | Competition | Award |
---|---|---|
1904 | St. Louis World’s Fair | Gold Medal |
1913 | Ghent International Exposition | Gold Medal |
1914 | Anglo-American Exposition, London | Gold Medal |
1915 | Panama–Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco | Gold Medal |
1954 | Star of Excellence, Brussels | Gold Medal |
1981 | Amsterdam Spirits Competition | Gold Medal |
These early awards built the brand’s “Gold Medal” legend — they’re literally printed on the bottle. After Prohibition and later, Jack Daniel’s didn’t enter many modern competitions, because by then it was selling by the millions.
Unlike many craft or premium bourbons, Old No. 7 rarely enters modern competitions, and when it does, it typically earns respectable but not headline-grabbing results. More recent awards include:
-
San Francisco World Spirits Competition
-
Occasionally medals (e.g., Bronze or Silver for Old No. 7).
-
-
International Wine & Spirit Competition
-
Similar — Bronze/Silver level.
-
Most major modern awards for Jack Daniel’s come from its premium range:
-
Gentleman Jack
-
Gold at San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
-
-
Single Barrel
-
Double Gold at San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
-
Consistently wins Gold at IWSC.
-
-
Jack Daniel’s Sinatra Select and other limited editions:
-
Often win medals for premium design and quality.
-
Summary: Why So Few Medals for Old No. 7?
Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 is a massive-volume mainstream product — it’s more about consistency and brand heritage than modern craft competition. It’s known for:
-
Lincoln County Process (charcoal mellowing)
-
Classic sweet vanilla/caramel profile
-
Being globally recognizable
But it’s not a typical “competition whiskey” like small-batch bourbons or single malts — its legend is more about history and marketing than shelves full of contemporary gold medals.
