Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA

Airfix glue, here I come! Back in the mists of time, the classic Old No. 7 was my first review. Does double filtration through charcoal make this Tennessee whiskey any better? Well, the nose is less rough and almost pleasant with notes of caramelized popcorn, syrup and nail polish. Is 'diabetic' a valid descriptor? Sugary, oily and slightly minty, the taste is rather one-dimensional with fresh oak spices, the expected spiritiness and a quickly fading finish. Granted, Gentleman Jack is a step up from the basic, mass-produced Jack Daniel's - but it's a small one.

@PBMichiganWolverine Ahhh, lucky you! You always get a slightly higher ABV in the States.
@Slainte-Mhath yeah—-here in US, it’s full CS. There’s a huge difference —-the CS one is excellent and reasonable ($60 or so I think)
@PBMichiganWolverine I do get Jack Daniel's Single Barrel here, but they only have 45% ABV! Do you get this bottling at real cask strength?
@Slainte-Mhath nice review. If they sell the Jack Daniels Single Barrel Cask strength in Norway, it’s a huge step up
