Jack Daniel\u2019s has unveiled a limited edition whiskey in celebration of the 150th anniversary of its distillery, created by master distiller Jeff Arnett.<\/p>\n

In January this year, Jack Daniel\u2019s announced a series of events and activities to celebrate the milestone, including a renovation of its Lynchburg distillery and the release of limited edition bottles.<\/p>\n

The new anniversary whiskey, created by master distiller Jeff Arnett, has a unique taste profile that combines the distillery\u2019s whiskey-making tradition with the artistry of modern-day craftsmanship.<\/p>\n

The 150th anniversary edition<\/strong> offers notes of \u201cbutterscotch\u201d and \u201ctoffee\u201d upon first taste followed by a full, smooth and lingering finish with warm flavours of toasted oak.<\/p>\n

The grain bill for the special whiskey is the same as Jack Daniel\u2019s Old No. 7, consisting of 80% corn, 12% barley and 8% rye.<\/p>\n

Arnett said: \u201cFor this 150th anniversary whiskey, our coopers \u2018slow-toasted\u2019 the barrels to bring out the rich flavours and aromas of the wood, creating a contemporary expression of an 1866 barrel char.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to offer a unique whiskey that we think collectors and consumers alike will enjoy for their own celebrations and is as special as the anniversary that it celebrates.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 150th anniversary whiskey will be available in\u00a0September with a suggested retail price of US$99.99 for a 1 litre bottle.<\/p>\n

As previously reported (see story<\/a>) Jack Daniel’s is hosting activations in airports around the world to celebrate the 150th anniversary of its distillery.<\/p>\n
