Good morning, sir. Slept in, enjoying my last day off for a while.

My brother's been on a JD kick lately. This particular one was bottled only 6 weeks ago. It definitely had that Jack Daniel's taste that comes from their charcoal filtering, but it was tasty and nuanced.

I just don't think tasty and nuanced when I think of Jack Daniels.

This one definitely had some toffee notes. The charcoal filtering (Lincoln County process) gives it a little banana flavoring. I'm not saying it's my favorite, but it was good.
