It’s not just rye—it’s rye made in Lynchburg, Tennessee, the Jack way.

Tasting Notes:

Vital Stats:

• Proof: 80
• Price Range: ~$200
• Volume: 750mL
• Origin: Tennessee
• Style: Rested Rye Whiskey (Tennessee Straight)

Appearance:

Pale golden yellow—reminiscent of a weathered page in a vintage paperback. Light in color due to its moderate aging in new charred oak barrels.

Nose:

Aromas of sweet cream cheese danish, light pipe tobacco, and nostalgic hints of candy shop treats create a gentle yet memorable introduction.

Palate:

Expect a blend of subtle spice and soft sweetness. Upfront notes of cherry cordial, light cinnamon, and vanilla cream settle into flavors reminiscent of blintz filling and a faint echo of Cherry Coke. While lightly sweet, it’s not cloying—making it ideal for sipping neat or mixing into a summer-forward cocktail.

Finish:

Clean, slightly peppery, and softly spiced. Leaves behind an airy warmth and a dash of sweetness that invites another sip.
