'Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.'

While it's unlikely to be used practically, it does have all the characteristics of a full sentence and is the shortest pangram (a sentence which uses all the letters of the alphabet) with only 6 redundant letters, 1 fewer than 'the quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog'.

There are a few that use 26, but I think they cheat (using abbreviations...).

But try this one, with only 28 letters:
Sphinx of black quartz judge my vow.

Or, at 27:
Bawds jog, flick quartz, vex nymph
