Note that Brown Forman also owns the following bourbon/American whiskey brands:
- Woodford Reserve
- Old Forester
- Coopers Craft
They also own the following European distillers:
- Slane (Irish Whiskey)
- Benriach (Scotch)
- Glendronach (Scotch)
- Glenglassaugh (Scotch)
Jack Daniels is obviously their highest volume brand, but some of these other brands are pretty big, too.

Evan Williams, from Heaven Hill, make a comparable product at a 1/3 of the cost. It doesn't go through charcoal filtration like JD so it is a bit more complex and not quite as smooth. Heaven Hill does not have the best labor practicesvis a vis their union however

I don’t have a bottle of Evan Williams at the moment but next time I do I will run some through a Brita water filter just to see what comes out the other side.

Heaven Hill makes a lot of good stuff. Too many brands, though.
I've never heard that Heaven Hill isn't union friendly. I always see their brands on the union-supported lists.
