Country: USA

Region: Tennessee

Type: Rye Whiskey

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 68.65%

Score: 94 Points

This is a permanent addition to the Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Collection, and the bottling strength will range from 62.5% ABV to 72.5% ABV. The nose is aromatic with baking spices, dark chocolate, red apples, and apricots. The taste is thick, chewy, and peppery with black pepper and cinnamon, touches of red apples, dark chocolate, and apricots that come out as the spices fade, while the finish is long, dry, and spicy.
