Comments:


A little flat for my taste. Maybe it's the charcoal filtering - removes lots of flavour components too. It is smooth though. It's not good to be a whisky snob; Jack Daniel is still interesting, and their premium products are promising based on this flagship bottling. Hope all those times I drank this mixed with Coke can be forgotten now - don't mix your whisky!

Verdict:

Not bad.
