Jack Daniel's is a brand of sour mash Tennessee whiskey that is the highest selling American whiskey in the world. It is produced in Lynchburg, Tennessee by the Jack Daniel's Distillery, which has been owned by the Brown-Forman Corporation since 1956. Despite being the location of a major operational distillery, Jack Daniel's home county of Moore is a dry county, so the product is not available for consumption at stores or restaurants within the county.

Although the product generally meets the regulatory criteria for classification as a straight bourbon, the company disavows this classification and markets it simply as Tennessee whiskey rather than as Tennessee bourbon.

Before

This unmatured whiskey has not been mellowed. Except for maturing, it meets all the standards of a bourbon. To become Jack Daniel's Tennessee whiskey, it must undergo the extra step of being mellowed drop by drop through 10 feet of hard sugar maple charcoal and then be matured to taste.

After

Although this whiskey is unmatured it has been mellowed drop by drop through 10 feet of hard sugar maple charcoal. This is the extra step that makes Jack Daniel's a Tennessee whisky and not a bourbon. Mellowing is a very costly and time-consuming process that makes Jack Daniel's different than any other whiskey in the world.

40% ABV / 37.5cl x2
