Intro:
This is a single barrel, barrel proof release of Brown-Forman distillate produced for the Jack Daniels line of expressions. This particular barrel was selected for Woodmans Market, a local chain here in Wisconsin.
-
Nose:
Honey, graham cracker, waffle cone. Peanuts. Bananas. Oak and cocoa. The banana is notably present here, but a lot of the other notes are interesting and new - like the waffle cone.
-
Taste:
Sweet and total banana bomb. Laffy taffy. Some heat. Rich and viscous though. Oaky, clove, lots of baking spice.
-
Finish:
Long but really really hot. Bananas, cocoa, cloves, pipe tobacco, oak.
-
Overall:
Great also but the heat is definitely more imposing than it should be. This cant really tango with the Kenwood I recently reviewed. While this was less a favorite, I dont regret buying it, as these are usually pretty interesting. I dont know if things are changing for Jack Daniels, or not, but Im noticing in the last year or so that I am finding far less bad barrels of the single barrel barrel proof that I used to. Seems like theyre really trying to dial it in.
