Chattanooga Whiskey 1816 Single Barrel is my all time top pick whiskey. This whiskey's flavor is second to none. Every time i drink Chattanooga Whiskey 1816 Single Barrel I am reminded what great Tennessee Whiskey should taste like. Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select "While not officially labelled bourbon, most of Jack Daniel's whiskeys meet the criteria required to be called bourbon. After distillation, Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey undergoes what is referred to as the 'Lincoln County Process. Jack Daniel's allows its whiskey to drip for six days in 10-foot vats, passing through charcoal that was made by burning maple wood that had been impregnated with 140 proof Jack Daniel's whiskey, before being put in new charred oak barrels and aged for an estimated 4-7 years. Jack Daniel's pulls barrels from the upper levels of the rickhouse for their single barrel bottling."​ This single barrel is clearly built on the bones of the standard Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 offering. A delicious dose of banana bread, caramel, and heavily toasted oak, along with the slightest hint of ethanol are immediately noticeable. However, unlike the standard Jack Daniel's, I'm happy to go back and keep smelling the nose on this whiskey. It's an overall simple profile that is easy to enjoy and appreciate. ​ Caramel, toasted oak, and dried banana chips are immediately noticeable. The whiskey has a simple sweet flavor profile and medium-weight mouthfeel that allows it to easily be rolled around in my mouth. In fact, it drinks more like an 80 proof whiskey versus the actual 94 proof that it's bottled at. ​ The finish is fairly one-dimensional, consisting of chewy charred oak and a dash of brown sugar mixed with white pepper. The finish lasts for a long time, with a peppery, dry, chewy charred oak taste that lingers for quite a while after the sip. After a tasty nose and palate, I was hoping that the finish would round out the experience. Instead, the finish is just average due heavily to its one-dimensional flavor profile. Chattanooga Whiskey 1816 Single Barrel 1816 Single Barrel is a robust blend, coming from barrels selected for their bold character and high proof cask notes. It is an immediately more intense whiskey on the nose with vanilla and dark toffee notes up front and cinnamon notes in the background. The finish is warm and slightly spicy, extremely smooth for its proof. COLORMahogany AROMAAmplified oak and spice character, compared to Reserve. Confectionary notes of toffee pudding, vanilla bean and brown sugar. Background notes of cinnamon and black tea with a light, earthy rye undertone.
