Jack Daniel’s Follows Up On Coy Hill Single Barrel

The Jack Daniel Distillery has introduced its follow up to the Coy Hill Single Barrel of 2021 with Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Special Release Coy Hill Barrelhouse 8, a complex Tennessee Whiskey from barrels matured at the distillery’s highest elevations. The latest expression in the Single Barrel Special Release series is bottled at barrel strength with proofs ranging from 122 to 137.5.

Jack Daniel’s Coy Hill Barrelhouse 8 starts with Jack Daniel’s traditional Tennessee Whiskey mash bill of 80% corn, 12% malted barley, and 8% rye. After distillation, the whiskey was charcoal mellowed and entered into new, charred American white oak barrels in September of 2013 to mature on the fifth and sixth floors of Coy Hill Barrelhouse 8.

“Our annual Special Release series has allowed us to showcase the whiskey making credentials of the Jack Daniel Distillery, especially with our recent Coy Hill releases,” said Jack Daniel’s Master Distiller, Chris Fletcher. “This year’s release builds upon the mystique of the Coy Hill barrel houses that see such drastic temperature swings throughout the whiskey’s maturation. Coy Hill Barrelhouse 8 is the same recipe as our Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey, but the unique elements, time, and mother nature have helped to craft a whiskey with an incredible range of flavors and proofs that would be impossible to replicate.”

The 2024 Special Release follows two earlier releases matured on Coy Hill, including the 2021 Coy Hill High Proof  Single Barrel and the 2022 Small Batch Coy Hill High Proof Small Batch, which marked the highest proofs ever released in Jack Daniel’s history.
