Gentleman Jack Rare Tennessee Whiskey (750 ml)

The contribution of Nathan 'Nearest' Green — the enslaved man who taught Jack Daniel the Lincoln County Process and served as the distillery's first Master Distiller — underpins every drop produced at Cave Spring Hollow, Lynchburg, Moore County. Gentleman Jack

takes that founding technique further than any other expression in the core range: where Old No. 7 is charcoal-mellowed once before barrel entry, Gentleman Jack undergoes a second full pass through 10-foot sugar maple charcoal vats after aging, stripping the post-barrel spirit of residual wood tannin sharpness before bottling at 40% ABV.

The distillery's limestone cave spring — a constant 56°F (13°C), iron-free — supplies water that carries calcium and magnesium without the metallic interference that iron introduces to fermentation. New-make is distilled to 140 proof on a 100-foot copper

column still with doubler, reducing sulfur compounds via copper contact, then entered into 100% new charred American white oak barrels at 125 proof across multi-storey rickhouses where Tennessee's seasonal temperature swings drive active wood extraction.

The 80% corn / 12% malted barley / 8% rye mash bill and sour mash backset fermentation establish the sweet-forward caramel and banana-bread baseline. The double mellowing is the rule-break: no other Tennessee Whiskey expression in the standard market applies post-aging charcoal filtration at this scale, producing a texture measurably softer than the single-mellowed flagship.
