I've tried alot of whisky and jack daniels is still pound for pound the best. I drink it with just ice. Single barrell jack is definitely the best out of the 3 Jack's. Balvenie is my favourite single malt.
Jack Daniels old no.7 whiskey is a great beginners whiskey. Its so smooth and tasty. Very friendly on the pallet i personally think J.D. is a very tasty whiskey.
Excellent stuff :). I would absolutely love to try the white whisky before/after charcoal mellowing, always thought it was a bit of a gimmick. Would be nice to have a side by side comparison.
Carl M Try to visit any big whisky fair in your country. Then you have to talk to the guys at the Jack booth for quite some time. They always have the two bottles with them. But I don't think they usually give them to everyone. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KvtYTmaAXbA.htmlm7s
I have tried the white, before and after the charcoal mellowing. Before it’s typical white lightening and about 240 proof. After the mellowing you can taste the difference, to me almost a sweeter taste than the before…
Am i the only one that finds it hard to call jack daniels a whiskey ? I could drink a bourbon and a jack , and when i compare the two i dont taste much difference as i would when im drinking a scotch or any other singlemalt.
I think I would like Jack Daniels a lot more without the extra maple wood charcoal finish. That extra wood and smoke is too much for me on their usual expressions
I consider a whiskey "smooth" when it just comes off as very rounded, it's hard to explain but I would say it's more common in whiskeys that have been aged longer.
Not a fan of the ole no.7. However they have a good product in their Single Barrel. Id drink it if it were $10 cheaper. At around 50 a bottle here in NW Ohio i choose others before JD Single Barrel.
Agreed, and a very corporate attitude throughout the entire tasting. Then again maybe he does these 10 times a day and it's hard to keep up the enthusiasm.
Ho to make expensive 8 year JD at a fraction of the price: Basically alcohol is ethanol and when u add oak (ok tree chips) and some vanilla to ethanol u get the same taste after only just 3 days.... don't take my word for it ,try it
For Whiskey, Jack Daniel’s has always been my go-to spirit. They say that the charcoal mellowing is what differentiates Jack from Kentucky Bourbon. But I also tell people that Tennessee Whiskey is made from a superior water source, from Tennessee’ limestone cave springs. And another obvious difference is that it’s made in Tennessee, hence it’s title. Jack Daniel’s also has a sweeter and less peppery flavor that most Kentucky Bourbons.
