In celebration of the 30th anniversary of our World Championship Invitational BBQ, They've combined two Lynchburg traditions into one bottle. By immersing charred hickory staves in their oak barrels, they've complemented the classic taste of their Tennessee Whiskey by finishing it with a hint of hickory smoked wood. They think it perfectly pairs with a barbecue on the fourth Saturday in October, or on any day of your choosing, for that matter!.
Jack Daniel's Tennessee Taster's Selection Hickory Smoked Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: The hickory is immediately noticeable, a rare occasion for whiskies of similar styles in my opinion. Usually you search for the particle smoke flavor, here it is easily found, especially if compared to the original Old No. 7. Back notes of caramel, vanilla, and apples.
Palate: There is a non-cloying sweetness not found in your normal Jack Daniel’s. Sweet hickory smoke, as the name has implied, is prevalent and well represented. The other flavors are still existent – oak, vanilla, caramel, red fruit, honey – but they are nuanced. After a few sips you’re accustomed to the hickory flavor, and it feels comfortable to drink.
Finish: The finish is long and warming.
