  • It’s rare I’d recommend shopping the secondary market, but after one taste of this year’s Coy Hill, I’m all in.

  • Solid expression with a good length to the finish. Would be enjoyable for those that don't want a dessert-like experience.

  • The 2024 version is a bit softer, but with a drop in proof (and increase in age), the resulting whiskey is arguably every bit as good. Sip it neat, sip it with water, do what you please: If you’re lucky enough to score a bottle, just make sure to share with friends.

  • Very few whiskey makers are masters of the high-proof game, but Jack Daniel, with its Coy Hill single barrel series, is one of the best.

  • Lovely and immersive, it's not the hazmat monstrosity of the original Coy Hill, and frankly, that's probably a good thing: That whiskey had so much alcohol in it that it was reportedly illegal to carry on a plane.

  • Paste
  • By Jim Vorel
  • All in all, this 2024 Coy Hill expression is undeniably flavor packed, benefitting greatly from not just its advanced proof but also a very mature age statement that gives it a depth of oaky complexity.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Huge, fat, rich, powerful nose. Tons of butterscotch, honey roasted peanuts, a touch of char and coffee and then back to the brown sugar and caramel show.

  • Taste:

    Rich on the palate — oaky and dry and loaded with char, toffee, crème brûlée, cinnamon, tobacco, banana and honey roasted nuts. It’s not as punishing as other special releases at very high proofs and I like how the oak is integrated.

  • Finish:

    Long finish. Honey, char, toffee and tons of oak. It’s drier than Coy Hill’s original releases and it’s full of dessert and peanut brittle. Lovely, but it’s a bruiser.

  • Overall:

    Unique but ultimately a more balanced, mature, complex release, and for that, I love this release from Jack Daniel’s.

  • Score:

    92
