Jack Daniel's Gentleman Jack
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed February 16, 2023 (edited March 3, 2023)Nose: The nose gives off caramelised banana and wood varnish, but not in an off-putting way. Palate: Oily body. Sweet caramel and banana leap forward with a touch of oakiness and vanilla. Finish: A distinctive charred wood note on the finish, possibly the maple, with gentle barrel spices. Long after finishing I'm still getting a lingering banana bread flavour. Quite pleasant. Notes: Certainly mellow and I like it for that. It's a super easy-going whiskey to sip at any time. A couple drops of water does what I usually find with bourbon (sorry, Tennessee whiskey); intensifies the ethanol on the nose and wood spice on the finish, and strips out the sweetness. Which actually may be preferred by some but I like it neat.25.0 GBP per Bottle -
Nose: Dried vine fruits, orange oil, light brown sugar. Subtle smoke. Palate: Creamy. Light heather honey, smoke starts to develop. A touch of sherry sweetness. Finish: Some baking spices with a lingering smoke like the waft recieved when lifting the lid of a BBQ to check the sausages aren't burning.
