Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 Tennessee differs from the Bourbon whiskey for the exclusive dropwise filtration through three meters of maple charcoal. Its alcohol is obtained from fermented malted wheat, rey and barley. With an amber appearance and a hint of caramel and vanilla, it evolves with a hint of maple wood and caramelized sugar. Licorice hints are also evident. The caramelized sugar and a hint of orange juice return to the palate to make its taste a bit more acrid. Liquorice is perhaps not too blended with the whole, making it a distinctive character of the JD, together with hints of freshly roasted coffee. Altogether it is a blend of very different and sometimes contrasting flavours but cleverly integrated. The vanilla brings back a sort of balance, with a hint of final maple juice; although it remains angular and rough. It has its own style. Alcohol content 40% vol
