The Story
Jack Daniel's Gentleman Jack — a double-mellowed Tennessee Whiskey that passes through the Lincoln County Process charcoal filtration not once but twice — before barrel entry and again after aging — producing the smoothest, most refined expression in the standard Jack Daniel's lineup.
Standard Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey is filtered through sugar maple charcoal once, before barrel entry. Gentleman Jack doubles that step: the new spirit filters through charcoal before going into the barrel, and then the aged whiskey filters through charcoal again before bottling. The result of this second mellowing is a whiskey that is exceptionally smooth and refined — less edge, less bite, more polish. The oak and caramel character from barrel aging remains, but every harsh note has been removed twice over.
At 80 proof in 750ml format, Gentleman Jack is the entry into premium Jack Daniel's territory and an ideal gift for anyone who appreciates approachable, well-crafted whiskey.

- Finish: Clean and warm with caramel and vanilla lingering softly
