Staying in the Jack Daniel's family, Jack Daniel's Single Barrel is the exact opposite of Gentleman Jack. Single Barrel features bolder and bigger flavors that amplify the experience of the Jack that everybody knows and loves. Single Barrel relies on one barrel and is chosen by Master Tasters that decide when it is ready to go on the market. The barrel that whiskey is aged in accounts for 50% of the flavor of the whiskey, which is why Jack Daniel's Single Barrel is matured on the highest floor of the distillery in the highest barrel. Bottled at 94 proof, oak, vanilla, caramel, and banana flavors are amplified, and a creamy mouthfeel is found. Jack Daniel's Single Barrel is best served neat or with one large ice cube to let the flavor of the whiskey shine. Old Forester was the first bourbon to be bottled. Post-civil war, America was still in recovery, and getting liquor was not easy. The two options Americans had were going to a saloon and drinking, or going to the doctor and being prescribed bourbon. Both of these options had the issue of redistributors siphoning off the good whiskey in the barrels and filling it with anything that was the same color as bourbon. George Garvin Brown was a pharmaceutical salesman trying to make a career and produce high-quality bourbon, so he had the idea of buying three barrels from three different distilleries and blending them together. He eventually started putting his product into glass bottles and signing his name for authenticity, making it the first bottled bourbon. The success of Old Forester has relied on the brand's ability to adapt, allowing them to sell liquor before, during, and after the prohibition. Old Forester's 86 proof was introduced to be more approachable and is suitable for both avid and new bourbon drinkers. Known as the "glue" of Old Forester since its introduction, this bourbon tastes great, is high quality and it is almost always available. Old Forester works best in cocktails like an Old Fashioned due to its complex flavor. Old Forester boasts rich vanilla, caramel, and brown sugar notes, along with floral spices, black pepper, and a prominent sour green apple flavor.
