This latest addition to Jack Daniel’s esteemed Single Barrel collection marks the brand’s inaugural venture into fully matured rye whiskey, capitalizing on the growing enthusiasm within the spirits community for this classic style. Building upon the success of their Unaged Rye in 2012 and Rested Rye in 2014, the introduction of Single Barrel Rye completes Jack Daniel’s foray into the realm of rye whiskies. Crafted from a blend of 70% rye, 18% corn, and 12% malted barley grain, this exclusive whiskey undergoes a meticulous aging process in charred White American Oak barrels, crafted at Jack Daniel’s own cooperage. Maturation occurs in the upper reaches of the Tennessee barrelhouse, where fluctuating seasonal temperatures enhance the development of rich rye flavors. Expect a palate brimming with notes of vanilla, dried fruits, and spicy apple, culminating in a clean, sweet finish. Bottled at 45% ABV, this full-bodied whiskey boasts a complexity derived from its time spent maturing in oak barrels. Conceived by Jack Daniel’s master distiller Jeff Arnett, who dedicated years to perfecting the blend, this rye whiskey promises an indulgent experience for aficionados seeking the distinctive character of rye.
