Jack Daniel's 10 Year (Batch 1)

Jack 10 yr 48.5% Norlan, sitting ~20 min, neat Copper in color Nose: bazooka bubble gum, bananas foster, vanilla, Carmel, maple, honey— really sweet/desserty; wow Palate: med to thick, NC sweet tea, oak, cocoa, nuts: walnuts and pecans, ending with a rich milk chocolate Finish: lingering with maple syrup, pears, tannic oak and tiramisu No alcohol bite. Ok, I’m impressed, not sure I’d call this Jack in a blind tasting. I keep coming back to it and pulling different notes, but it’s so well structured that it’s actually hard to pull them out Rating: 8 on the T8ke scale: excellent

Incredibly smooth. Jack Daniel's signature banana flavor. Maple. Leather. Oak. Some heat towards the end.

N RICH caramel sauce, sweet wood that intertwines with the aged oak, marshmallow, maple.maple.maple, banana P Golden raisins, the age of the wood in the best way possible, oily maple syrup M The 97 proof is perfect, the maple-bomb is both enriched and tamed by the decade on oak. Effortless, prepare to get in trouble if given the chance. I don't like the price compared to the old distiller editions (I'm old enough to have enjoyed them far more than today's fellow taters), those were $35-50, this was $63+tax @msrp, at which I'm lucky to have snagged it for apparently. I like it more than the average of those, though... this is a duh for Jack fans who enjoy the profile. Was between this and a super cheap 1.75 of gentleman before leaving the store and this was the right choice
