Jack Daniel’s Logo — Jack Daniel’s distillery is a brand of whiskey Tennessee U.S.. The distillation method is identical to bourbon in almost everything, and people often confuse them. The most notable difference is that Tennessee whiskey is filtered in sugar maple charcoal, giving it a unique flavor and aroma. Known for its square bottles and black label, the company, established in Lynchburg, Tennessee, was acquired by Brown-Forman Company in 1957.
The smoothing with charcoal is the process used to develop the Tennessee whiskey, like Jack Daniel’s. The process consists of passing very slowly freshly brewed whiskey through large containers completely filled with about 3 meters (10 feet) of sugar maple charcoal. The process takes 10 days and during this time the whiskey absorbs the essence of coal, which refines the drink and gives it a unique flavor and aroma.
The barrels of whiskey are made from American white oak wood because this is the perfect combination of compounds to create the finest whiskey. While whiskey is aged in the barrel, the wood contracts and expands (like everything) as the climate changes that occur in their environment. As this occurs, the whiskey in and out of the wood and the combination of exposed elements mixed with whiskey. The mixture gives the whiskey a smoky flavor and an amber tint.
