Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye (2023 Release)

Citrus, caramel, char, and interestingly cinnamon apple on the nose. The palate is spicy at 137 proof, but the heat yields to a buttery vanilla and unmistakable rye spearmint. The finish is long and enjoyable. I liked this a lot more than I expected. Bravo jack daniels!

Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye (136.1 Proof) Nose: Toasted cinnamon raisin bread. Hot, but deceiving. On the nose, no hotter than some 120 proofs I’ve had. Palate: It’s creamy and sweet on first sip, but just a moment of that. There’s more complexity here than maybe any other JD I’ve had. There’s baking spice that compliments the nose so well. The rye note is present, as it should be. Finish: The richness and creaminess lingers, but so does the heat and sweetness. The flavors in the finish make me feel like I just finished a bananas foster. Caramel goodness, and a bit of maple too. Cheers 🥃

Barrell # 23-03120 Bottling Date - 3-30-23 Barrel House- 2-03 133.9 Proof 66.95% Aroma - massive dark fruit and melted caramel profile here along with subtle hint of banana. Surprisingly there is hardly any alcohol presence which makes me a little scared. The nose is fantastic though. This is candle worthy. Zero rye presence here. I absolutely love this. Taste - That massive banana foster note profile is popping up front with black cherries and caramel. Midpalate - cherries still linger, but then the rye hits in the form of wintergreen and mint. There is a touch of cinnamon from time to time but it’s in the form of a red hot candy. Finish- boozy, caramel drizzle, vanilla, luxrado cherry juice, rye spice. Overall - it’s a monster of a pour. Rips the enamel off the teeth and the stomach and lower esophagus take a beating on this one. But palate gives zero fucks. For the pice of $80. This might be the best rye barrel proof offering on the market.

136.1 proof

Holy cow. Its hot, but not in a bad way. Lots of classic rye notes but a lot of caramel and sweetness I wasn’t expecting. 67.05%.

Really, really solid

Hot, but a good hot. That aftertaste is good on this one
