Jailer’s Tennessee Whiskey
Country: USA
Region: Tennessee
Type: Tennessee Whiskey
Bottler: Capital Brands/The Tennessee Spirits Company
ABV: 43%
Score: 84 Points
This whiskey comes from an undisclosed Tennessee distillery – reported to be either Jack Daniel’s or George Dickel, but the bottlers are under a gag order in their contract.
The nose is warm and spicy with pepper, hazelnut, dark chocolate, almond, and honey notes. The taste is peppery with honey and brown sugar on top of the black pepper and hints of almonds and dark chocolate in the background. The finish is long and spicy with black pepper fading away slowly and touches of caramel and dark chocolate. (August, 2013)
