The synthesis between young and aged bourbon creates a one-of-a-kind blend.

Jack Daniel's Announces Release Of No. 27 Gold Tennessee Whiskey Across United States

LYNCHBURG, Tenn., April 15, 2019 After its initial launch as a travel retail exclusive item in select markets in Asia, Jack Daniel's is officially introducing Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold Tennessee Whiskey to the United States.
A double-barreled and double-mellowed expression of its classic Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey, the premium bottle brings a fusion between warm maple and toasted oak to create a rich and refined finish suited for today's whiskey aficionado.
Representative of the skill and craftsmanship of the Jack Daniel Distillery, the process first begins with maturation in new charred American white oak barrels. Once these barrels are determined to be fully matured, they are removed from the barrelhouse and the whiskey is placed into maple wood barrels. The final step is a second time charcoal mellowing before being bottled.
"Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold pays homage to our distillery's golden rule of, 'Every day we make it, we'll make it the best we can,'" said Jack Daniel's Master Distiller Jeff Arnett. "The natural amber hue, along with a scent of toasted oak and honey, offer an intricate texture and taste, making this whiskey a very distinct and luxury product."
Due to the extra time and attention required to craft this ultra-smooth spirit, Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold Tennessee Whiskey was previously only available in select markets. This product launch emphasizes Jack Daniel's continuous commitment of making high quality whiskeys fully available to a wider consumer. Best enjoyed neat or on the rocks, the product is now available across the United States for a suggested retail price of $99.99. For more information on Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold Tennessee Whiskey, visit www.jackdaniels.com.
About Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold Tennessee Whiskey Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold Tennessee Whiskey is a luxury expression of Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey.

EIGHT OAKS CRAFT DISTILLERS BEST DISTILLERY IN LEHIGH VALLEY FOR 2019

New Tripoli, Pa. April 15, 2019—Lehigh Valley Style recognized Eight Oaks Craft Distillers, a veteran-owned craft distillery in the rolling farmlands of Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley, as the best distillery in the Valley for 2019.
CEO/Founder Chad Butters and the team at Eight Oaks are humbled and grateful for such wonderful recognition. 

According to Butters, “When we started this journey in 2015 our goal was to be the best in the Valley. We’ve worked hard to not only put out amazing spirits, but also provide the best experience for our customers and our crew. Today that hard work was recognized and we couldn’t be happier. We are so honored to be a part of all the great things that are going on in the Valley.”

Eight Oaks grows their grains, with the help of their farmer, Kevin Utt, right on farmland just steps from the distillery. They source other fresh, sustainably grown ingredients from their neighbors — local farmers and trusted friends. This seed-to-bottle process is what makes their spirits unique and run deep with rich, Pennsylvania roots.

Butters continued, “This means so much to our crew, and the fact that we were recognized by our customers in the Lehigh Valley means a lot to us—it means we’re doing things the right away and that our customers appreciate it. We have the best crew on the planet and they continue to make us better every day. Stay tuned, because we have a lot of big plans.”

Blade and Bow will toast the 22-Year-Old bourbon at its fourth annual A Stitzel-Weller Affair on May 3. Guests will gather for an exquisite supper on the lawn featuring an epicurean collaboration between famed Charleston, SC, culinary entrepreneur Brooks Reitz and beloved local chef Susan Hershberg, complemented by the soulful music of indie-folk band, Mt.
