Jack Daniels Holiday Select 2014 Limited Edition

2014 was the very first year in which Master Distiller, Jeff Arnett individually selected the Holiday Select barrels which were used to create this unique limited release. He has decided to showcase the depth and richness that a single barrel can offer and selected the most robust and complex whiskey he sampled.

Over 140 barrels stacked 8 metres tall. Bottled straight from the Barrel Tree just once every year, Holiday Select is one-of-a-kind, just like Mr. Jack himself!
