Jack Daniel’s Black Label Old No 7

Jack Daniel’s Black Label (also popularly called Old No 7, or more commonly as JD or simply Jack) is one of the bestselling whiskeys in the world. Jack Daniels is made in the Tennessee sour mash style. It is very similar to bourbon with the additional step of charcoal filtering the unaged whiskey. This is traditionally known as the Lincoln County process and is done by dripping the fresh make spirit through a vat of sugar maple charcoal to mellow the whiskey before going into barrels. The result is a smooth, versatile whiskey that is true to its country roots.

Jack Daniels prefers to age its whiskey for as long as its needed rather than putting an age statement on the bottle. Instead, the brand relies on the expert judgment of the distillers to decide exactly when whiskey in a particular barrel is ready to be bottled.
