Released in December 2025, this is the 16th release in the Jack Daniel's Distillery Series. Bottled at 111.4 proof, this rye whiskey is distilled from a mashbill of 70% rye, 18% corn and 12% malted barley. While there's no official age statement, we know that this rye whiskey was aged around five years and finished in table syrup barrels for an additional three years.

Table syrup is an alternative to maple syrup, often made from cane sugar or corn syrup (corn syrup, cane sugar syrup, cane molasses and pure honey in this instance). These barrels were first used to age Jack Daniel's rye whiskey, then table syrup, then re-used for the aging of this spirit.

This bottle has a suggested retail price of $44.99 per 375-milliliter bottle.

  • While it’s certainly sweeter than any other Jack Daniel’s rye I’ve encountered, it’s also, somewhat surprisingly, no sugar bomb.
