Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye (2020 Special Release)
Rye — Tennessee, USA

My bottle was bottled on 9 Nov 2020 and is 132.1 proof.
Overall I would say it is great but nothing about it blows me away. I’m a full proof and a rye guy and I don’t get a ton of the rye flavor at all, I would guess the mashbill is closer to 51% rye and not a lot more but who knows. It sips very easy especially for the proof and I do get a very slight banana note that I only get with Jack Daniel’s. I did also get some cinnamon notes on the nose but I guess I just expected more rye. It does drink way lower than its proof for sure though!

I think all the JD ryes have a mashbill of 70% rye, 18% corn and 12% malted barley.
