In the case of Jack Daniel’s Twice Barreled Special Release Heritage Barrel Rye, the intention is clearly there, however, the execution takes it further than I would like. When done right, like with Penelope Toasted Rye, the toasted barrel can impart a dose of flavors that help enhance the overall whiskey. Toasted barrel finished whiskey isn’t a new concept, however, you don’t see it utilized as often for ryes. Instead, it’s all about the time it spent in barrels, as it’s officially the oldest rye release from the company to date and more specifically, its focus on its heavily toasted finishing barrels. Unlike 2020’s Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Special Release Barrel Proof Rye, this year’s release doesn’t rely on proof to make its point. In the case of Jack Daniel’s Twice Barreled Special Release Heritage Barrel Rye, you realize something is different about this bottle the moment you pour a glass and see the dark colored whiskey before you. You have to give the brand credit for expanding the depth of their product line allowing consumers to recognize them not only for their standard Tennessee whiskey, but as a distillery that is capable of producing a wide range of various tasting whiskeys. This year alone the brand released a second batch of their 10 Year Whiskey, introduced a new 12 Year Whiskey, a Bonded Rye, and made Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye a permanent expression. Jack Daniel’s has been expanding their product portfolio at a fervent pace as of late.
