Jimmy Bedford, Jack Daniel's sixth Master Distiller, has been making whiskey a long time. An official taste-tester and the man who decides which barrels should become Jack Daniel's Single Barrel, he has a gift for detecting the subtle differences a barrel brings to his or her whiskey.
Each bottle of Jack Daniel's Single Barrel is hand-labelled with its barrel number, giving whiskey connoisseurs the opportunity to test their own abilities.
When you try Jack Daniel's Single Barrel for the first time, note the barrel number.Try to detect the different nuances, a strong caramel or vanilla presence, perhaps; or maybe the toasted oak flavour or fruit drawn from the barrel wood captures your taste buds.
Jack Daniel knew what charcoal mellowing meant for his whiskey, so it's only natural that he’d wonder what a second trip through the charcoal might yield. Throughout his life, he experimented with charcoal mellowing his whiskey twice, once before it went into the barrel and again after it came out.
While Mr. Jack never did produce much whiskey this way, we’re thankful that he saved the recipe. And in 1988 we started making Gentleman Jack, the first new whiskey from the Jack Daniel Distillery in more than 100 years.
Gentleman Jack Rare Tennessee Whiskey has a rich, full flavour with a hint of fruits and spices. Since the whiskey has been twice mellowed, the finish is particularly smooth, warm and pleasant.
