Jack Daniel's Single Barrel IV
It’s big. It’s back. It’s barrel-strength. This is full-throated, unadulterated Jack Daniel’s, carefully chosen from the top tiers of their famed rickhouses, exclusively for the Club.
United StatesColour Deep chestnut
Nose Vanilla pancakes with bacon, cherries and maple syrup. Lemon and barbecued corn, apple crumble and a hint of polished wood.
Palate Bold and rich, with bright orange zest, pineapple, toffee apple, cookie dough and roast almonds, before a finish of charred oak and sticky date pudding.
Overview
Single barrel Jack Daniel’s is a rare beast. Single barrel Jack Daniel’s at barrel strength? Something else entirely. Hand-selected by the team at Jack Daniel’s from the stocks in the top tiers of their rickhouses – where the big swings in temperature guarantee the whiskey soaks up the most barrel-influence possible – only 1 in 5000 barrels is picked for release at barrel strength.
We chose the cream of that already exclusive crop to bring to our Members: it’s big, it’s brash, and it’s bottled at a burly 62.5% ABV, so you’re getting maximum Jack for your buck.
If you’ve not tasted JD at barrel strength before, expect a full-throated, unadulterated expression of everything that makes Jack Daniel’s, well, Jack Daniel’s: a deep, dark whiskey jam-packed with Jack’s trademark vanilla, toasted oak and dark cherry flavours, overlaid with light spice and a moreish sweetness.

Jack Daniel Distillery's History
The youngest of ten children to Calaway and Lucinda Daniel, no-one knows for sure exactly when Jasper Newton “Jack” Daniel was born. His tombstone says 1850, but his mother died before then, so the truth remains a mystery. His father soon remarried and had another three children; however, Jack and his stepmother did not get along well, and following his father’s death during the Civil War, Jack ran away from home.
