Have you ever had a triple mash whiskey before?

More then likely you have and didn’t even notice, but if you haven’t then Jack Daniel’s has got one for you as part of their new bonded series.

Jack Daniel’s Triple Mash is a Bottled-in-Bond whiskey, which must be distilled by a single distiller during a single distillation season, matured in a government bonded warehouse for at least four years, and bottled at 100 proof.  Barrels are hand-selected for their characteristics of deeper color, flavor, and aroma, which deliver a darker, richer, and more oak-forward character.

Tasting Notes:  Jack Daniel’s Triple Mash

Vital Stats: While this is non-age stated, it is bonded, so we know it’s at least 4 years old. It has a Mash-bill that is 60% Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Rye (70% Rye, 18% Corn, 12% Malted Barley), 20% Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey (80% Corn, 12% Rye, 8% Malted Barley), and 20% Jack Daniel’s American Malt (100% Malted Barley). It is 100 proof and an MSRP of $33

Appearance:  A 700ml Jack Daniel’s bottle with mahogany red whiskey inside.

Nose: Southern sweet tea and fresh cedar almost Christmas like. Fruity cherry cola with hints of spice.

Palate: Sweet with red raspberry zinger cakes along with some banana. Tingling pop rocks with dried cherries and cinnamon cherry cola.

Finish: Medium to long with a little Tennessee hug and some woody oak.

Overall: We both found it as a very unique whiskey that we both would buy again. We love seeing Jack Daniels stepping away from the normal expressions down in Lynchburg, Tennessee.

Have you had a Tennessee bourbon ?

George Dickel Tennessee Whisky released their 8 year old bourbon whiskey last year and Big Chief as curious and grabbed a bottle.

Some fun facts about George Dickel or Cascade Distillery Whiskey is that it was produced at the famous Stize Weller Distillery in Shivley Kentucky from 1910 to 1917 due to Tennessee’s enactment of prohibition.

In the 1940’s and 50’s it was made at the OFC Distillery, yes the modern day Buffalo Trace in Frankfort, Kentucky.

By 1958 after the owners of Jack Daniel’s refused to sell to the owners of Dickel they reconstructed the Cascade Hollow Distillery to compete directly with Old #7.

Tasting Notes: George Dickel 8 year bourbon whiskey

Vital Stats: This is a 8 year old bourbon whiskey . It has a mashbill is 84 % corn 8 % rye and 8 % malted barley, is 90 proof and has an MSRP of $30.

Appearance:  The standard George Dickel bottle with sun tea color Tennessee bourbon whiskey inside.

Nose: minerals with some fruity sweetness. Ripened banana with peaches.

Palate: New cut oak with peanut butter powder that drinks a little dry. It seems younger than 8 years. Not a lot of sweetness. Tobacco and carrot cake on the back end.

Finish: very short but with a nice Tennessee hug.

Overall: This was a little disappointing for both of us. For an 8 year old whiskey we wanted more complexity. This would still be a great mixer so there’s one positive. This is a pass for both of us. Cheers
