Peppermint From the Land Where the Ice Never Melts
Yukon Jack built its name on a frontier persona — named for the Yukon pioneer Leroy Napoleon "Jack" McQuesten — and Perma Frost is the brand's coldest pour: a peppermint schnapps bottled at a full 100 proof, strong enough to carry the name. Sazerac acquired Yukon Jack from Diageo in the 19-brand sale agreed in November 2018. Find it on our liqueurs shelf, browse the full spirits range, or visit the Yukon Jack vendor page.
