He was given unprecedented access to the world's biggest whiskey brand, its employees, the distillery in Tennessee where every drop of the whiskey is made... and traveled from Lynchburg to Los Angeles to Iceland to Scotland to Japan to Cuba and beyond to find out what makes whiskey such a romanticized drink, and what makes Jack Daniel's such a big seller. The film features appearances by John Grisham, Tina Sinatra, Erik Church, and also Shooter Jennings who created the original soundtrack with musicians including Matt Sorum (Guns & Roses) help make this film a whiskey-soaked adventure of epic proportions.
