The fourth cocktail of Friday Night Cocktails is the Gentleman & Ginger which uses the Gentleman Jack Tennessee Whiskey from Jack Daniel’s. The Gentleman Jack is filtered through sweet maple charcoal both before and after being casked instead of just after like the Old No. 7 resulting in a smoother flavour.

This is the third cocktail of the Friday Night Cocktails on the 18th February and, like the last, uses the Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey along with white Sambuca to make a simple shooter.

The Sambuca will dominate this shooter with the whiskey mainly found as a subtle taste.

The second of out cocktails uses the Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey in a Spiced Apple Jack.

The first of our cocktails on the 18th February 2022 is the Tennessee Rye Manhattan, which is a Tennessee twist on a traditional Manhattan.

The #FridayNightCocktails on 18^th February will use Tennessee whiskey as the main ingredient.

Jack Daniel’s is the best known Tennessee whiskey, but is not the only one. We will be using both the Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 (the standard one with the black and white label) and Gentleman Jack (same spirit but double mellowed; i.e. filtered through maple charcoal both before being barreled (the Lincoln County process) and bottled, whereas the Old No. 7 is only filtered through charcoal before being bottled).

Tennessee whiskey is quite interesting; while all Tennessee whiskey is made in Tennessee, not all whiskey made in Tennessee is Tennessee whiskey.
