With 74 warehouses holding 1.6 million casks, Jack Daniel’s is one of the largest distilleries in the world. But this is certainly not what gives this whiskey – commonly referred to as “Jack” – its unique character and distinctive flavours. Unlike its bourbon-producing cousins in Kentucky, Jack Daniel’s follows the Lincoln County Process, a unique procedure that involves filtering the distillate through a layer of maple charcoal before being put into barrels. This enables it to retain the heaviest elements of the spirit and favours the overall homogeneity of the distillate.
