✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the historic Jack Daniel Distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee—established in 1866 as the first registered distillery in the United States—the Single Barrel 100 Proof represents a robust, high-character expression of traditional Tennessee Whiskey. Crafted from a mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley, the spirit undergoes the legendary Lincoln County Process, where it is slowly mellowed drop by drop through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal before entering charred American white oak barrels. For the Single Barrel collection, master distillers select barrels from the uppermost floors of the barrelhouses, where extreme seasonal temperature fluctuations intensify the interaction between wood and whiskey. Bottled at 100 proof, this expression delivers a deeper concentration of rich toasted oak, dark caramel, sweet vanilla, and intense baking spices, preserving the bold legacy of Jasper Newton Jack Daniel.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1866 by Jasper Newton 'Jack' Daniel alongside head distiller Nathan 'Nearest' Green, the Jack Daniel Distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee, stands as the oldest officially registered distillery in the United States. Sited strategically at Cave Spring Hollow, the facility draws cool, iron-free spring water filtered through subterranean limestone, critical to pristine fermentation and distillation. The hallmark sour mash bill—dominated by corn, complemented by rye and malted barley—undergoes the defining Lincoln County Process, in which unaged distillate filters drop by drop through dense sugar maple charcoal before barrel entry. Matured in hand-crafted, newly charred American white oak barrels exposed to Tennessee's shifting seasonal climate, the whiskey emerges with pronounced notes of vanilla, toasted caramel, and soft charcoal mellowing. Owned by Brown-Forman since 1956 and overseen by Master Distiller Chris Fletcher, the house remains celebrated for its ubiquitous Old No. 7, alongside benchmark collector bottlings, Single Barrel expressions, and the Gold Medal commemorative series.
