Jack Daniel's 10 Year Old Tennessee Whiskey - 700 ml

Jack Daniel's 10 Year Old Tennessee Whiskey is a landmark limited release from the country of the United States, produced at the historic Jack Daniel Distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee. First released in 2021, it represented the first time in over 100 years that the distillery offered a whiskey with an age statement of 10 years or greater. Unlike the standard Old No. 7, which is typically aged for four to five years, this expression undergoes a decade of maturation. To manage the intense Tennessee climate over such a long period, Master Distiller Chris Fletcher and his team meticulously relocate the barrels from the "Buzzard's Roost" (top floors) to lower ricks to slow down the wood interaction and extend the aging process.

Spirit Description

This whiskey follows the classic Jack Daniel's mash bill of 80% corn, 12% malted barley, and 8% rye. It undergoes the signature Lincoln County Process, being mellowed drop by drop through 10 feet of sugar maple charcoal before entering new, charred American white oak barrels.

• Colour: Deep bronze or raw sienna.

• Aroma: The nose is rich and intensified, featuring classic notes of caramel and vanilla alongside complex scents of dry fig, raisin, baked apples, and almond butter. Hints of toasted oak and a light floral esters are also present.

• Palate: A full-bodied and oily mouthfeel. It delivers layers of warm butterscotch, dark fruit (like plums and fresh figs), and bittersweet cocoa. The oak influence is prominent but balanced, offering a strong backbone of charred caramel and tobacco leaf.

• Finish: An incredibly long finish characterized by sweet tobacco, soft spice (such as nutmeg and ginger), and a lingering oak lacquer.

• ABV: Bottled at 48.5% ABV (97 proof), a unique strength specifically chosen to maintain the harmony between wood tannins and sugars.
