Three bottles of Jack Daniel’s Aged Series Tennessee Whiskey are displayed side by side on a kitchen counter. From left to right are the 10-Year-Old (Batch 02, 97 proof, 48.5% ABV), 12-Year-Old (Batch 02, 107 proof, 53.5% ABV), and 14-Year-Old (Batch 01, 108.4 proof, 54.2% ABV) expressions. Each bottle features the signature square shape with a black label and gold detailing, denoting age and barrel-proof strength. The whiskey inside shows deep amber hues, reflecting its longer maturation in oak barrels

This month we’re diving into a vertical tasting of the JD 10, 12, and 14 Year expressions — all Tennessee whiskey and all looking damn fine lined up.

We’ll sip, compare, and pretend we know what “mouthfeel” means.

It really doesn't drink as hot as you might think. That one is the clear favorite.

Our monthly club tasting was a deep dive into Elijah Craig and what a lineup. We sampled:

Big flavors, bold heat, and a masterclass in oak and balance. Which one’s your favorite?

Elijah Craig bourbon store picks

Elijah Craig bourbon store picks

Store picks are some of the best bottles you can find. This Elijah Craig bottle from Oak Liquor Cabinet was fantastic. And who doesn't love a good tater sticker? Don't overlook these bottles at your local stores. There's often times an open bottle to sample, just ask.

Heaven hill 20. Compared to Mellow Corn at 20 times the price and 10 times the age is maybe 2 times better. We did a Corn themed night and the HH didn't perform well against the lineup tonight. Spend your money on the Still Austin Corn mash releases or the Smokeye Hill. Way more bang for the buck.

Cracked open Still Austin Monster Mash 2024 tonight. 54% 108 proof. Mash bill is Malted White Corn, malted wheat, rye, malted rye and malted barley. This one is different from every other Still Austin release. If you can find one, it's pretty good.

Old forester 1924 bourbon

I found this one finally, and got it at a good price, too. I've had this one already at the Nickel City. It's oak forward, middle and back end. Some have posted reviews that they didn't care for it. Seems to be love or hate on this one, but I'd recommend it to those who love that oak profile.

Blue corn bourbon whiskey. Deeeeelicious!!

You can take comfort in knowing that today you are at the top of the hill, but that slope is getting steeper everyday. Just make sure you have some good brakes.

Frey Ranch has zero burn at 90 proof. Light viscosity with a short finish. Fruity on the front with short oak finish that vanished quickly. Good starter to proof up on the next one.

Picked up a Jack Daniels 12 year today. If it's anything like the 10 year, this is going to be good.

The Von Payne whiskey was different. Very cherry forward, almost too sweet. Adding bitters cuts the sweetness and makes a decent old fashioned.

I'm sure this will be a mixer but this bottle...

@jaketapper.bsky.social Your prediction of the Eagles schedule will be mentioned a few times this fall. 😁 #DC4L

Jack Daniels 10 year. Not your typical Jack Daniels flavor profile. I enjoyed this one. The proof is 97. The flavor starts lightly sweet but ends with a ling oaky finish. Do not mix this with Coca Cola.

Trying this Heaven Hill 20 year today with friends. It's fantastic! 80% corn mash. Pricey but delicious.

That's the 100 proof. Try the 120 proof. You'll like it.

Sweet on first taste with a smooth oaky finish. Knobs Creek 9 year Single barrel Reserve 120 proof is comparable.

This is a really great bottle. Old Forester Single Barrel.

Bourbon skeet #1. Buy these. Lucky Seven.
