Whiskey Expert Tastes Jack Daniel’s 12 Year Old Batch 2 for the First Time

In the latest video on the Whiskey Raiders YouTube channel, Chief Spirits Critic Jay West, aka T8ke, tastes the newly released second batch of Jack Daniel’s 12 Year Old, the latest exciting expression from the Tennessee whiskey brand.

Jack Daniel’s has in recent years begun thinking beyond the middle shelf, experimenting with higher age statements and barrel finishes in addition to selling droves of its old reliables, such as Old No. 7.

This is the second consecutive year we’ve gotten a 12-year-old expression from Jack and the third year we’ve gotten a 10-year whiskey. Check out the video to hear West’s initial thoughts on Jack Daniel’s 12 Year Old batch 2.
