I don’t drink alcohol at all but I still enjoy these videos
Thank you!
Dude same

This scoring system strikes again. Between that and the blinds, I am LOVING this new format. This is exactly how I’ve felt about jack without being able to articulate it
its definitely a lot of peoples first taste of whiskey/Bourbon 😂usually mixed with Good old coca cola
My first was some “Redneck Riviera”. Some celebrity whiskey from one of the Big & Rich artists. I never actually tried old No. 7 until I toured the distillery 😂. I had JD honey and apple, but not black label until I went to the distillery.
JD no.7 was always the best friend of every rock star in the '70s. They always had the famous bottle in their hand, keeping the bad boy myth alive. Stones, Zeppelin, Van Halen, Southern rockers, you name it. It's not the greatest whisky I have tasted, but sure is the one with the most Oomph ✌️🙂
Cool vid amigo!
HELL YA! more Buzz for your buck! 😀😇👍👍👍
I like that you've weighted the categories and I think you've done the percentages right. Those are ticking all the boxes.
Absolutely spot on. I really want to see woodford and Evan Williams BIB. Feels like they would do well in this new scoring system
i've tried a whole bunch of different cheap whiskey's and always come back to Old No 7 my fav!
Jack Daniels, the perfectly average whiskey that is good enough to drink on its own, yet cheap and available enough to use for any mixing. Always have a bottle on hand because it is so versatile.
Right. I’ve had worse whiskey that was 3x the price of jack. Not to mention how amazing the triple mash and others is with damn near the same price tag.
Thanks for taking one for the team! I think very fair scoring - about an average for the average sipper (as long as not with a certain cola). I like the Bonded and Barrel Proof - only one's that will cross my lips. Cheers y'all!
This is the best whiskey channel on CZcams. Period. I really enjoy the hunting videos!
This video format is a real step up 🥃
~53 is where I'd rank it. You can get this anywhere in the world. I think you'd be surprised how many USA whiskeys you can get all over the world, I recently got a bottle of Knob Creek 9 here in Croatia. Love your energy, subscribed.
Subscribed. Dunno how I even found this channel, as I don’t drink anymore. Still find the history and nuance fascinating
What made me a Jack Daniels fan was when I paired it with charcoal grilled burgers. The charcoal filtering really came our with those burgers. From that point on, every time I drink JD I get charcoal, which I love.
Excellent review. Your channel has taken off. Love the content 😁 52 is exact
Did the tour at JD this past weekend. Great place, great town, a lot of fun. The Triple Mash is something special to me! But nothing wrong with old no 7.
Honestly one of my favorite spots to come to before buying a whisky I know nothing about hahah! Great review 🥃 🎉
Fair. I’d agree with the score here. I’d be interested in seeing you score the single barrel jack and where that falls in your opinion.
Just found your channel and I love it. It's awesome to see how a fellow Alabamian goes about finding allocated bottles. Keep up the awesome content and maybe I'll see you one Saturday morning around Hoover, AL. Roll Tide Roll
I always keep Jack (old no.7) on hand for Jack and Cokes. It is NOT something I drink neat.
I love these blind reviews. Cant wait for the next one!
I was a big Tin cup whiskey guy but I've tried gentleman jack for the first time today and I'm in love 22 yr. old whiskey drinker here
love the vids, keep grinding
Nailed it on the score. No 7 is definitively middle of the road. I like that it’s a blind pour.
Jack Daniels is a must in any bar collection.
Awesome scoring. Right on the mark with scores and reasons.
I think you hit the nail on the head with this one. I have never tried any other bourbon/whiskey that I actually enjoyed as much as I enjoy JD old no.7. I drink it neat. Don't care to mix it with anything. I do enjoy it with a good cigar like a gran habano corojo no.5. Subbed and thank you for the review.
this is suprisingly educational
I had Jack Daniels years ago and hated it. But I wasn’t a regular consumer of whiskey at the time. This video convinced me to go get a bottle on my next run to the liquor store. I really like Maker’s Mark 46, but I also want a hood cheap mixer or something to knock back a couple of shots on some random Tuesday afternoon.
Wild turkey 81
Are you going to adjust the older reviews to the new system? Great video
Love your new scoring system.
Thanks!
I’ve been eagerly waiting for this one!
JD7 is my go to whiskey that is perfect for mixing with coke or occasionally sipping straight.
Agree that it’s probably the quintessential “average” whiskey 🥃 but the price point is good and I don’t feel awkward in the store when looking for what to buy that I know I’ll like and not be afraid of wasting money on.
For a only a small step up in price the Jack bonded is a great premium option for general mixing and sipping
Could you share your age? I fell for the JD when i was in my early 20s.
Have you tried any of the cheaper whiskeys as mixers?
In my opinion, there are many man whiskeys for half the price that taste better.
Ya ,definitely Not Rot gut at any level. it is my go to also.
I have had really low quality whisky, like ten-High and it gets you there, but
defiantly not as enjoyable as JD. like the man said Jack Daniels is the drink
of rock stars and outlaws 😀👍
Exactly
Charcoal filtering doesn't "add" flavor per se, it removes some of the chemicals found in young, whiskey. So technically, they are adding flavor by removing chemicals and that technically makes it a bourbon.
Lol not how that work, it's bourbon. With a extra step
Great way of doing it right! I agree
Love the blind tasting reviews great idea! 👍
Thanks for watching!
Great content. Really like this presentation style. He mentioned good bottles for $20-25. @Brewzle, have you made a video on this?
Yes I have! It's down the list on the longform content
Lots of love and respect from India. JD is unmatched, and with coke its an elixir
Nice! I think that's the one we all started with. I don't care about the label, just the taste. Haven't had Old No.7 in a while. I've slipped into the barrel aged stout club lately, love to see you take on a few more of them. Cheers!
Agreed
@@Brewzle
I drink Jack Daniel's No 7 only on the rocks.
I find it very pleasant.
It also has a slight tobacco taste.
Do a review on small batch knob Creek.
Jeepers you are bang on with this new scoring system fair play you have a great tasting palate. Well done bro.
Thank you sir!
New scoring system seems good to me. I noticed that the previous one would seem skewed.
I’m not really a whiskey snob I just like Jack Daniels. I’ve drank it ever since I was 21 and I’m 61 now I’ve had others but I seem to always go back to JD. It’s comforting and nostalgic.
Interesting hypothesis about the most recognizable bottle... JD is certainly up there. What else? Makers Mark? Blanton's? For people who drink bourbon a lot, Elijah Craig and Knob Creek are probably on the list.
Another plus to the availability is different sizes available everywhere.
The go too every time every place it’s not fancy it’s not expensive and you can get it pretty much every where and it tastes pretty good 👍
These blinds are absolutely best
You find Jack Daniels pretty regularly in the UK as well
Scoring is perfect
Jack Daniel’s, Jameson, and Isle of Skye 8 are my favourite cheap whisk(e)ys
I recommend doing value prior to availability. Only be shown the price at that point. That way the name can’t influence value. Then do availability last, which is when you really need to know what it is.
Great point. This is exactly my feeling of just OK whiskey. Even for mixers I have a concern. I got bonded GD which is #1 in Whiskey Advocate, and I still don't like it at all. Just OK. I love JD single barrel bourbon and rye. I have barrel proof as well, but didn't try this yet. Hope this is a best one (per CZcams reviews)
Need to see a Frey ranch review
My friend Jack, he’s a hell of a friend
Yeah, I like the scoring system. This episode kinda proved that it’s working. That’s right about where Jack Daniel’s should go.
At 9:50 my former 8th grade mind (circa 1998) couldn't help but hear "Overall I'm just gonna stick it right in the middle". Not counting the last concluding words of the sentence, just that part.
im glad to see Brewzle is on team 'tennessee whiskey'! i hate having to argue with internet morons on how Jack does not qualify to be called a bourbon. bourbon touches virgin char oak/charcoal ONLY!
Jack Daniels was the 5th, 6th, and 7th whiskey I've tried. The first one I tried was Gentleman Jack which was very underwhelming. The 2nd was the Single Barrel Select which absolutely blasted me with a char flavor that was too distracting for me to enjoy it, even when I mixed it with coke. The 3rd was No7 which was definitely more tame than the SBS (and was delicious with coke, go figure), but the char flavor/smell was still too distracting to enjoy it neat or over ice.
In case anyone is curious, my experience with whiskey up to this point has been J. Reiger Kansas City Whiskey (Kansas Native, had to be my first. I'm not including the awful sip of Orange Jameson I had), Willett Pot Still Reserve bourbon, Wild Turkey 101 bourbon, and Old Forester Statesman bourbon (Went to the store looking for Old Forester 86, but Statesman had a cooler label).
I've never had a worse hangover than when I got wasted on Jack&Cokes... but in Jack's defense, I primarily drink beer and drank a 5th down to maybe 1 finger left in the bottle
Try splitting a handle of Evan Williams in a single evening 😆
Man i see an Ardbeg behind you, this is my favorite scotch
Jack, until recently, the only whiskey I like straight. I'm a novice to whiskey, so it's strong for me, but I like seeing it from the view of a whiskey aficionado. Strangely, I like jack but not bourbon, despite being made a similar way
I agree. I like 0ld #7 the best, got their bourbon just once, had one drink, and gave the rest away. to me, bourbon just doesn't do it. I love that beautiful warm bloom you get when JD hits the bottom of your gut.
I love that you guessed Elijah Craig Small Batch correctly, but didn't know Old No. 7. You never know what you are going to get in a blind. 😂
haha true!
I'm surprised as well, just wasn't expecting it.
My friend got a JD bicentennial bottle in his living room and I wanna drink it soooo baddd
I love drinking jack daniels and coke.
Yes....
Sometimes I am sad that I'll never get to enjoy drinking with my dad.
He gave up drinking when I was about 10 because he had a real heavy drinking problem and surely would not be around today if he kept going.
He is now dry for almost 9 years but I realy whish I could just have some beer or Whisky with my old man and just have some drunk conversations because I imagine it to be a really nice experiance.
BTW I am from Germany thats why I can drink at this age
Love the reviews. Are you a fan of Japanese whiskeys? If so, any recommendations?!
I actually don't think I've had any
I feel like you wouldn't be able to blind test Jack Daniel's. It's a pretty distinctive taste that you'll probably recognize. UPD - posted this before I got to the part of the video with a similar comment from the host.
I only mix this with Coca Cola or I drink it on the rocks on a summer day. The Single Barrel Select at 94 proof now that is great 👍🏻🥃
Nothing wrong with that!
I enjoy JD's, but it has gotten a bit pricey in my country lately because of sanctions.
JD is an average every-person's whiskey, so the score is appropriate
I'd like to thank brewzle for my new alcohol addiction whiskey only though 😂
To really test you and the new scoring system we need a cheap cheap whiskey, would make it easier for you to give lower scores too
Jack Daniels is technically bourbon, it is also Tennessee whiskey. It fits both criteria. Similar to how Bourbon is Whiskey but not all Whiskey is Bourbon.
A true bourbon is a friend to most a true whiskey is a friend to all.
I love how your are rating these blind now. This is going to get interesting. The new rating model is awesome.
Heh! Unsurprisingly, JD#7 is kind of the baseline where other corn-mash whiskeys can be measured against. It's the Old #7 Mean.
i drink a pint of jack everyday because of this channel
Wonder if I can guy JD not filtered. To taste it at its core.
Added note: Jack Daniels actually made their bottle that shape to make it harder for others to sell their product by slapping another name on it. Also people would add the Jack name to a random bottle and it be total hog wash, so that protects their name as well.
Jack Daniel's clearly stats on the bottle that it's whiskey not bourbon! So bourbon is a type of whiskey that’s made from at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak barrels, while whiskey can be made from any grain and aged in any type of wood barrel.
it was nathan who taught jack how to make whisky, the preacher was just his owner.
Yes absolutely Jack should be exactly where the baseline is
Nothing goes better than Jack on the rocks and live heavy metal
im a bit confused is this system new, this would be pretty high ranked compared to others. we need a updated list we can click on lol
I can always drink it , i don't have to think about it , I just crab it and have a drink and I drink in occasions only.
Jack Daniel's is the Ford of American Whiskey you can never go wrong with Jack #7
I rather like the Bonded version since it is 100 proof. I am not sure if the filtering process removes something "important" but to me it tastes good but just does not taste much like bourbon.
i got a challenge for you need to try old crow worst bourbon ever
I had a fire ball for my first taste of liquor
I think jack Daniel’s should be a slit bit lower but you are right on the money in the 50
A video comparing Jack Daniel old number 7 and John walker black label
I'm no expert, but I know what I like, Old No 7 is good but I liked the Green label better. Now I cannot find it, Also find that I now prefer Gentleman Jack the best of the Jack Daniels for Me
Uncle Nearest is Jack Daniels.. its not really bourbon, but it goes great with coke if your tired of Bacardie Rum.. everyone has it.. like coke.
Will you be redoing all previous reviews?
Not sure, should I?
Only because you’re now doing it blind and the new scoring system.
By the way the new scoring systems is great. Cheers 🥃
Jack Daniels also distills Coopers Craft, also charcoal filtered. Does that mean Coopers Craft is not a bourbon?
Jack Daniels vs Evan &Williams Bottled & Bond, I'll take EWBB every day of the week & twice on Sunday. Hell, just basic Evin Williams is 10x better than JD
Love my JD
My first drink was jack daniels and man the taste whooped my ass more than the buzz🤣
It is.
If it's not than you must say EW is not also because they also use charcoal filtering
I don't think the association with people like Sinatra and The Rolling Stones can be overstated. Since most people drink when underage as an act of rebellion, Jack Daniels being associated with celebrities who essentially answer to no one is far more important than whatever is or isn't in the bottle.
