Another of Jack's Master Distiller's edition, this time the No.5, that honours Frank Bobo. This is part of a series of expressions that commemorate the 6 Master Distillers that Jack Daniel's have had through history.
Bottled at 43%abv, caramel color.
On the nose, it is very interesting. Pancakes, maple syrup, bananas, vanilla and brown sugar; your standard jack Daniel's profile, very well delivered. Banana ice cream and thick caramel. After a first sip, a very incredible ashtray note appeared.
On the palate is a little straightforward. Prunes, caramel and deep dark spices.
Honey. Very enjoyable.
Aftertaste is spicy and very different from other Jacks. Oak spice and Red Hot Chilli Peppers. A little sour.
Overall, this is an "enhanced" Jack Daniel's. If you are a fan of the brand, you will love this one. My score for it is 83 over 100.
