Whiskey Rye Jack Daniels Single Barrel *Special Release* Tanyard Hill Rye

The Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Special Release series is an annual limited release from the Jack Daniel Distillery. This year's release introduces a new expression from Tanyard Hill. If you’re standing at the Lynchburg Hardware Store and look straight up the hill, you’re looking at Tanyard Hill. For years we’ve known that it is a place that produces exceptional whiskey, but this is the first time we’ve called out Tanyard Hill on a bottle. This special whiskey rested at the top floors of one of our oldest barrelhouses for nearly a decade. Our 2025 Jack Daniel's Special Release is a unique opportunity to experience how our barrelhouses influence the proof and flavor of our rye mash bill.

Our special Tanyard Hill release starts with a grain bill of 70% rye, 18% corn, and 12% malted barley. We grind and ferment the whole grain, distill it in our copper stills, and then pass it through our traditional charcoal mellowing process. The Tennessee Rye Whiskey distillate was barreled in 2015 in new charred American White Oak barrels then were aged on the top floors of Barrel House 1 atop Tanyard Hill resulting in a complex, robust flavor that showcases our whiskey-making craft. Bottled at barrel proof, ranging between 130.2 to 148.8 proof, this special release exemplifies the versatility in proof that Tanyard Hill delivers.
