"Single Barrel is not so much new as it is a welcome return. The expression initially launched in 2018 as a limited release, with another limited run coming a year later. But, as of now, it'll be offered year-round as part of the distillery's Single Barrel Collection. Single Barrel Heritage was the very first special release we ever did on Jack Daniel's, says Global PR Director Svend Jansen. And it was probably one of the most sought-after and fan favorite bottles we've ever done."
"A standard toast for a normal Jack Daniel's barrel is 12 minutes with about a 25-second char. For Single Heritage, it's a 23- to 24-minute toast and a flash char. The whiskey also enters these barrels at a lower proof of 100 (the standard JD has the highest entry proof of 125) and is then matured in some of the highest-elevated barrel houses in Lynchburg."
Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Heritage returns as a year-round expression in the Single Barrel Collection after limited releases in 2018 and 2019. The whiskey retains Jack Daniel's classic mash bill of 80% corn, 12% malted barley and 8% rye and still uses the Lincoln County Process charcoal filtration. The expression is matured in high-toast, low-char barrels prepared in a throwback style, with 23–24 minute toasts and a flash char. The spirit enters barrels at 100 proof (versus the standard 125 entry proof) and is aged in high-elevation barrel houses in Lynchburg to emphasize barrel-driven flavor.
