The first 10YO Jack Daniel’s in over a century.

Jack Daniel's is the largest producer of American Whiskey in the world bar none, reaching more than 11 million cases. Based in the Moore County town of Lynchburg, Tennessee, Jack Daniels has been owned by Brown-Forman since 1956. Interestingly, Moore County is “dry,” meaning that the sale of alcohol is strictly prohibited, so all of those workers making all of that wonderful Whiskey can’t buy it in their hometown. That just seems horribly cruel… like prohibiting a baker from eating cookies, or insisting that a cobbler wear no shoes.

Jack Daniels makes Tennessee Whiskey. If you take all of the rules that you must follow to call your beverage “Straight Bourbon Whiskey” and add both a unique charcoal filtering process prior to aging (the Lincoln County Process) and the requirement that your product is 100% made in the State of Tennessee, then you have Tennessee Whiskey. And yes, it makes a difference.

For more than a whole century, Jack Daniel’s didn’t release a 10-year-old expression. Until now. Jack Daniel's 10 Year Old Tennessee Whiskey is a limited edition bottling, coming from just around 200 barrels. This is a unique expression for the iconic producer. First, it spent the first 8 years of aging on the 8th floor and it was then moved to lower floors — this yields both dry and rich flavors. Bottled at 97 proof, this proof s also a first for Jack Daniel’s. Add it all up and what you get is an incredibly rich pour of iconic Jack Daniel’s flavors.
