From Limited Releases to Permanent Offering
The permanent launch follows award-winning Heritage Barrel limited special releases in 2018 and 2019 that utilized Jack Daniel’s distinct barrel toasting technique to create a unique and rich character.
Innovation in Whiskey-Making Tradition
“The way our barrels are built and our ability to experiment are two of the most important parts of the Jack Daniel’s whiskey-making tradition,” said Chris Fletcher, Master Distiller at the Jack Daniel Distillery. “It was exciting for us to see what our Heritage Barrels produced with previous limited releases, and we’re thrilled to bring that same unforgettable flavor to more friends with this permanent offering.”
Crafting the Heritage Barrel Expression
To craft the expression, Jack Daniel’s classic Tennessee Whiskey mash bill of 80% corn, 12% malted barley, and 8% rye is distilled and mellowed through 10 feet of sugar maple charcoal. Barrels are prepared with a high-toast, low-char toasting technique inspired by the earliest barrel-making traditions, creating a deeper, richer toasted layer before the barrel is charred. The whiskey then enters the Heritage Barrels at a lower proof of 100 and is matured in some of the highest-elevated barrel houses in Lynchburg, Tennessee. While each barrel will vary in age, all Single Barrel Heritage Barrels are matured for at least seven years.
Tasting Profile (According to the distillery)
Offered at 100 proof (50% ABV), Single Barrel Heritage Barrel has a soft oak nose, warm notes of honey and candied fruit across the palate, and a lingering finish of brown sugar.
Availability and Price
Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Heritage Barrel Tennessee Whiskey is available now nationwide in the U.S. in 750 mL bottles at a suggested retail price of $69.99. An international rollout will follow in the coming months.
