A Single Malt from Tennessee's Most Famous Distillery
Everything here starts in Lynchburg: the barley is ground, fermented and distilled at the Jack Daniel Distillery, then the new-make spirit is mellowed drop by drop through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal — the Lincoln County Process that defines the house style. From there it rests in new, charred American oak barrels before a finishing period in Oloroso sherry casks from Spain adds dried-fruit depth. Explore the rest of the American whiskey shelf for more single malts and small-batch releases.
Tasting Notes
Soft oak, fruit and cocoa lead the nose. The palate is rich and complex — dark chocolate-covered nuts and berries — with a subtle, sweet Oloroso sherry character carrying through the finish. The charcoal mellowing keeps it smooth at 90 proof, while the sherry casks give it a richness no other bottle in the whisky range quite matches.
How to Enjoy
This rewards slow sipping: neat or with a splash of water to open up the sherry fruit. Jack fans comparing house styles will want it alongside Gentleman Jack, and if the liter format suits you, the Sinatra Select is another 1L Jack Daniel's worth knowing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size is this bottle?
This release comes in a 1 liter bottle — the only size Jack Daniel's bottles this expression in.
How is it different from Old No. 7?
Old No. 7 is a Tennessee whiskey made mostly from corn. The American Single Malt is 100% malted barley, and it is finished in Oloroso sherry casks, which no core Jack Daniel's release is.
Is it a limited release?
Yes — after years as a travel-retail exclusive, Jack Daniel's brought it to the US as a limited annual release in the fall of 2026, in limited quantities by market.
