Every day we make our whisky, we will make it the best we possibly can.
Water is used from the Spring Distillery well, which produces 3000 liters of pure fresh water per minute, filtered through limestone. It is important that there is no iron in the water, because even a small iron content gives the whiskey an unpleasant metallic taste.
A combination of 80% corn, which gives the whiskey a sweet taste, 12% malted barley and 8% rye is used for alcohol production. The products are mixed in fermenters with a volume of 150,000 liters with the residues from the previous fermentation and left for some time. Soon the yeast begins to absorb the sugar, alcohol is formed in the process and carbon dioxide is released. After 6 days, most of the sugar is converted into alcohol. Part of the mixture will remain until the next fermentation, and the rest is heated to separate the alcohol. The alcohol vapors are led to a still, which produces alcohol called green whiskey. The green whiskey is filtered through charcoal obtained from sugar maple, and the entire filtering process lasts about 10 days. The filtered whiskey is transferred to new charred 200-liter American oak barrels, which will give color and aroma to the whiskey.
The production process, unique to Tennessee Whiskey, is known to the world as the Lincoln County Process. All other American whiskey production methods are classified as bourbon.
By law, any American whiskey must be aged for at least 2 years, but Jack Daniel's whiskey is at least 4 years old.
