To: TJD distillery
We the undersigned have enjoyed Jack Daniel Tennessee Sipping Whiskey for many years.
We however protest the surreptitious drop in alcohol content over the past several years.
In the past 15 years the proof of TJD Black label has dropped from 90 to 86 to 80 proof.
In times past the Black Label version was purchased because of it's higher alcohol content. The Green label was always regarded as "Inferior" in quality.
Many have now boycotted the purchase of TJD Black label feeling that the clandestine drop in alcohol content of the "Black Label" is a breach of trust between Jack Daniel's distillery and the consumer.
We the undersigned petition that Jack Daniel's "Black Label" be returned to it's former glory of 86 - 90 proof.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
Is this a boycott threat or a whimpering plea? Think your mistakenly using a shotglass as your monocle. I'll not sign that, drunks are Taras Bulbas, not Walter Mittys, you want the restoration of black label, I want the men who did this disgracefful act FIRED and the restoration of black label, nothing less is acceptable.
