Jack Daniel's Tennessee Honey Whiskey Liqueur

Short Description

Long awaited in the UK and with a big following in the USA, this is Jack Daniel's honey and whiskey liqueur. A mix of regular Old No 7 and a spiced honey liqueur, it's got spice, sweetness, floral undertones and a long smooth finish. Drink over ice, chilled or even in a cup of coffee – it's rather tasty.

Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey is a blend of Jack Daniels Tennessee whiskey and a unique homemade honey liqueur, for a taste that is one-of-a-kind and unmistakably Jack. With a hint of honey and a finish that is naturally smooth.

Nose: Pungent honey right off the bat – a freshly opened jar of crystallised honey, with a touch of earthiness to it – fudge, biscuits (British ones), floral hints and some allspice.

PALATE Thick and oily texture, with dark caramel (both runny and solid shards), nutmeg and allspice. The flavours remain rich and dark, with sweet milky coffee, dark chocolate and demarara sugar lightened by some candied lemon hints. There's also, as you might expect, a rich and sweet honey undertone beneath it all – lightly pungent and floral, with a real honey flavour.

FINISH Spicy and sweet, with cinnamon heat, runny honey and vanilla fudge.

COMMENT Not as sweet or sharp as most honey whiskey liqueurs, with real honey flavour, rich sweetness and gentle spice.

Long Description

Jack Daniel's is the superstar among whiskey brands in terms of awareness. No other whiskey company probably makes as much revenue from merchandising as the company from Lynchburg, Tennessee. Born in 1846, Jasper Newton Daniel (known to most as Jack Daniel) is said to have learned the craft of whiskey distilling as a young child. In 1860, at only 14 years old, he took over the distillery where he worked. In 1886, the distillery was licensed, making it the oldest registered distillery in the United States.
