✨ Technical Specifications
The Jack Daniel's Master Distiller Series No. 5 pays tribute to Frank Bobo, who served as the distillery's master distiller from 1966 to 1989. During his tenure, Bobo guided the brand through a historic rise in global popularity, famously maintaining the whiskey's uncompromising quality even when demand far outpaced supply. Crafted in Lynchburg, Tennessee, this expression follows the time-honored Tennessee Whiskey tradition: a mash bill of corn, rye, and barley malt, distilled and then mellowed drop by drop through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal—a method known as the Lincoln County Process. It is then matured in handcrafted charred white oak barrels. This process imparts the signature smooth, sweet character of vanilla, toasted oak, and caramel that defines the Jack Daniel's legacy, wrapped in a historical tribute to one of its legendary liquid custodians.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1866 by Jasper Newton 'Jack' Daniel in Lynchburg, Tennessee, Jack Daniel's is recognized as the first registered distillery in the United States. The distillery relies on the iron-free, mineral-rich waters of Cave Spring Hollow and is defined by the traditional Lincoln County Process, in which unaged spirit is slowly mellowed through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal before maturation. Now part of the Brown-Forman Corporation, the distillery maintains an uncompromising commitment to crafting authentic Tennessee whiskey. Renowned worldwide for its flagship Old No. 7, Jack Daniel's also crafts premium expressions like Gentleman Jack and its nuanced Single Barrel Collection, celebrated for their signature balance of sweet vanilla, toasted oak, and mellow caramel notes.
