Jack Daniel's Honey Whiskey: Overview, Composition and Serving

In honor of the 162th anniversary of the trading house under the famous Jack Daniels brand, the eponymous whiskey was released in April 2011. He got the original name. It sounds like Jack Daniel's Tennessee Honey. In its composition, the main ingredient is a special liquor made from natural bee honey. This is also evidenced by the bee attached to the label of each bottle of whiskey.

Hence the color of whiskey - amber yellow. However, this mixture is not only an amazing color, but also a rich taste. The creators have successfully achieved a balance of taste and bouquet. It traces the fortress of expensive American whiskey and the sweetness of flower honey. There is so much natural honey in it that even bees do not see the difference!

In the luxurious aroma, you can notice the flavors of spicy cinnamon with a honey tint, a slight whiff of vanilla and caramel. The creators did their best to advertise their new product and even released special toffee flavors with the taste of vanilla caramel under the same name.

And all this is a new honey whiskey, reviews of which sound, without a doubt, only the most positive, thanks to which he attracted a lot of attention of connoisseurs of bourbon.
