]]> Comment on A Private Tasting with Jimmy Bedford, Master Distiller at Jack Daniel’s by Michael Wilson http://alcoholreviews.com/?p=2560&cpage=1#comment-5096 Michael Wilson Fri, 27 Apr 2012 14:52:11 +0000 http://alcoholreviews.com/?p=2560#comment-5096 As luck would have it one of my local liquor stores purchased a barrel as described in the article. Sold for about $45 per bottle and well worth the cost. I generally choose a Jack Daniels Whiskey but this was so incredibly smooth. Not near as much of an alcohol nose allowing the other flavors I've grown to love really announce themselves. The bottle makes for a nice presentation as well. The glass and cork topper make a statement, "Not to be guzzled but savored and enjoyed over time". Definitely not a pedestrian whiskey.
