Ken;
About a mile & a half from where I live there used to be a small lake which was created by a dam across the same creek which flows by by house. The remains of the dam still stand, but the lake is now dry. Used to catch some nice fish out of it. it is owned by the family who once owned the distillery of which you spoke. Back around the 1920's before this family bought it, another family built the dam & created the lake for a Resort. A short distance below where the dam is are 7 springs all bubbling out of the ground in a very small area. The amazing thing about these springs is that each one of them has a different type of water. It has been many years since I actually went there, in fact the whole area is now strictly "Posted" with big "Keep Out" signs everywhere. In the past I have been there & seen the springs personally & in fact tasted the water from them & they are in fact not the same water. One of them is Sulphur. As the crow flies as they say I live about 6 miles from the famous Lynchburg spring from which Old #7 is made, so there is certainly no indication of what their water is based on what mine is.
