โจ Technical Specifications
While classified under the category of Other as a distilled spirit rather than a traditional grape wine, the Jack Daniel's Legacy Edition No. 2 is a liquid piece of American history. This special release pays homage to the era before Prohibition, featuring a label design from the early 1900s when the distillery experimented with gold and green accents before settling on the iconic black label. Crafted in Lynchburg, Tennessee, this whiskey utilizes the historic mash bill of 80% corn, 12% barley, and 8% rye. The spirit undergoes the legendary Lincoln County Process, where it is slowly dripped through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal before aging in handcrafted, charred white oak barrels. This meticulous mellowing process imparts its signature smooth character, rich with notes of warm caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, steeped in over a century of distilling folklore.
๐พ 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 billโdominated by corn, complemented by rye and malted barleyโundergoes 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.
