The 2024 Jack Daniel’s Heroes Selection Single Barrel Barrel Proof Tennessee Rye offers flavors of toasted oak and barrel spices
Jack Daniel’s has unveiled the Heroes Selection Single Barrel Barrel Proof Tennessee Rye Whiskey. This is the third limited edition in the series, which features whiskey chosen by heroes, for heroes. Selected by U.S. Navy Veteran and Jack Daniel’s SVP General Manager Melvin Keebler, the 2024 Heroes Selection edition was hand-picked to celebrate veterans and active military.
Offered between 125 and 140 proof and featuring a mash bill of 70% rye, 18% corn, and 12% malted, Jack Daniel’s 2024 Heroes Selection delivers aromas of rich caramel and toasted fruit. Although each barrel is slightly different, flavors of toasted oak and barrel spices provide depth across all bottlings and character. The whiskey is barley and is charcoal mellowed before aging in new, handmade American white oak barrels.
“Community, camaraderie and the importance of mission are the core principles that I feel my military service shares with my work today at the Jack Daniel Distillery,” says Keebler. “It is my privilege to select this whiskey in honor of the men and women who continue to serve and protect our freedom.”
The Heroes Selection annual release is the latest effort from Jack Daniel’s to support military communities. Since 2011, Jack Daniel’s Operation Ride Home campaign in partnership with the Armed Services YMCA has raised nearly $3 million to cover costs for nearly 13,000 junior-enlisted service members and their family members to travel home for the holidays.
Jack Daniel’s Heroes Selection Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye is available in 750ml bottles for a suggested retail price of $69.99 in select military retail locations. For more information, head over to the brand’s official website.
Last November, Jack Daniel’s shared Distillery Series Selection #12, a Straight Tennessee Whiskey Finished in Oloroso Sherry Casks.
