You are all probably aware that there is a very acceptable Malt Whisky, alongScotslines, distilled at the villagePenderyn, which is near Merthyr and in the County Lines of Brecon? There's also a Brecon Gin produced there which is equally notable.

But ... who has explored the origins of the American Whiskies and suchfamousnames as Jack Daniels and Evan Williams?

It's worth a dig. You may discover that the Welsh Whiskey makers were driven out of Wales and that this factor was one of the original platforms for the Tennessee andKentuckyWhiskey industries ...

Who can add detail to this footnote of history?
