Jack Daniel's // Tennessee, USA
This bottling from Jack Daniel's is the first permanent American single malt expression from the brand. It was crafted with a 100% malted barley mash bill recipe.

It is then finished in oloroso sherry casks from Spain for ~ 3 years.
Bottled at 90 proof, this release is a global travel retail exclusive. Availability begins September 2023. (SRP $99.99 - 1 Liter).

Tasting Notes
"The aroma has a mild level of char smoke along with a mix of fruits such as plums, red berries, raisins, and orange peel. There's also a few oxidized notes from the sherry wine casks here too. Additionally, there's a malted milk balls note here which will have you thinking the whiskey is on the sweet side. However, the whiskey is only mildly sweet. The body is a medium-plus feeling in the mouth with flavors leaning towards more of towards dried fruits with a light taste of malted cookies mixed with barrel spices. It's chewy without it being dry. Further nosings brings forth some dried green herbs. Overall the finish is bittersweet with a moderate length. Flavorful and pleasant — a solid offering. "
