  • Awesome color on this, and the whiskey lives up to it. It’s surprisingly bright, decadent and sweet. Tremendous batch — probably my favorite since the very first 12 Year Old release.

  • The palate is much more interesting, driven by flavors of brown butter and cinnamon, though quite hot. Fruit and cereal combine to offer a bold, nutty banana bread character, with notes of ginger and clove emerging later.

  • Breaking Bourbon
  • By Eric Hasman
  • Batch 4 of Jack Daniel’s 12 Year offers a bold, age-forward sip, letting the sweet aged oak take center stage, but don't worry, the brand’s classic cherry notes still linger close by.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Fantastic nose, opens with a mix of crème brûlée, maple cream, browned butter, peanut brittle and a dusting of cocoa powder. Underneath lies some cola, fresh raspberries and blueberries, gingerbread and cinnamon.

  • Taste:

    Nice viscosity on the palate. A wealth of rich desserty notes here. Huge maple syrup vibe is surrounded by cloves, cherry syrup, blackberries, tobacco, leather, peanut brittle, caramel, cocoa powder, almond, nutmeg and a vaguely chalky note.

  • Finish:

    The finish opens with soft oak, malted milk balls, blackberry and leather. A sharp bite of tannin leaps forward next, joined by espresso, cinnamon and nutmeg. Fresh-baked banana bread lingers long.

  • Overall:

    Awesome color on this, and the whiskey more than lives up to it. It’s surprisingly bright, decadent and sweet. Perfect amount of oak on the palate — maybe a touch tannic on the finish, but not aggressively so. Tremendous batch — probably my favorite since the very first 12 Year Old release.
