The Last Call

Jack Daniel’s Heritage Barrel Toasted Barrel Whiskey Review.       Jack Daniel’s is no stranger to innovation, and the Heritage Barrel line continues to prove that the Tennessee giant still knows how to surprise even its long-time fans. The 2025  Toasted Barrel Edition  takes the brand’s familiar character and layers in new depth through an extended barrel toasting process. As someone who’s always appreciated the Single Barrel Selects for their rich balance and great value, I was eager to see what doubling the toast time could do.       What makes this expression unique is the barrel treatment: while standard Jack barrels are toasted for 12 minutes and then charred, the Heritage barrels are toasted for 24 minutes and flash-charred. That means more of those deep caramelized sugars and toasted oak flavors have time to develop. The whiskey goes though the Lincoln County Process of maple charcoal filtering and aged for at least seven years. ...

Rattle and Snap Single Barrel Pick Straight Tennessee Whiskey Review.            Log Still Distilling has always been a bit of a mystery with two separate projects, Monk's Road coming out of Kentucky and Rattle and Snap sourced from Tennessee. This single barrel, barrel proof Tennessee whiskey checks in at a hefty 59.125% ABV and has been aged for at least five years. I’ve been a bit skeptical lately after trying a Monks Road barrel pick that felt overpriced and underwhelming, but when my local store had a last bottle of this Rattle and Snap barrel pick, I figured I’d give it a shot. The mash bill remains a mystery, which is a bit frustrating, but the label confirms it’s gone through the Lincoln County charcoal filtration process that Tennessee whiskeys are known for.
