General description

В общем-то Джентльмен по факту очень похож на стандартный Джек no.7.
Действительно, тот же аромат, тот же вкус и тоже самое послевкусие. Он действительно, наверное, помягче, а единственным отличием является более сильный древесный вкус и аромат. И цвет явно темнее.
Не уверен, что с учетом его цены, есть смысл покупать его, а не стандартный релиз.
Но этот виски меня не разочаровал.

Great Jack taste

General description

W zapachu bardzo waniliowy, drzewny, słodki (miodowy)
Smak: Bardzo pieprzny, waniliowy, miodowy. Gdzieś tam pojawiają się kwiaty lub owoce

General description

Not worth his price

General description

tasty for one glass per evening

General description

Just better Jack Daniel's Old No. 7, in this price level is a lot, more interesting positions

General description

Really smooth. But not a whole lot of flavour. I prefer the bite from old no7.

Nose

vanilla, caramel, sweet

Palate

vanilla, sugar

Finish

banana

General description

dissapoitment

General description

Bland and flat. Tastes like the charcoal filtered most of the flavors.

General description

tasted at Hermans mancave! perfect!

General description

Smooth, light charcoal, corn, caramel. It's a tamed bourbon that is a great mixer and pleasant easy sipper. For character and punch, look elsewhere. It has it's place. I like it.

General description

smooth chared taste, oakey bourbon taste

Palate

Oakey smooth

Finish

Long with no harsh after taste

General description

Vanilla dominates the smell. The palate is classy and smooth, the vanilla and the caramel are the most predominant flavors with just a hint of cherry. The finish is long and smooth, no burning, just a little spiciness.

General description

Fruitige geur, kruidig en bittere smaak

Finish

Short and flat

General description

After drinking standard Jack a few times when going out (with Coke) years ago, I thought it was a good idea to introduce myself to bourbon (I know officially it's not) starting with this Gentleman. I must say I like it, it's nice and sweet, pretty soft en smooth. But at first I was a little disappointed because it's kinda watery. But the overal taste is nice, caramel, vanilla, a little spice. No need to mix, nice on the rocks though. Don't really prefer to drink it neat, because it can be a little harsh. Compared to for example Jameson.

General description

Very sweet and gentle bourbon.

General description

This reveiw was prompted by a request from one of our followers and is long overdue.  Jack Daniels is arguably the world's most well known and widely consumed whiskeys.  Gentleman Jack is their next tier offering.  I found this whiskey to be simple, with not much complexity to entertain the senses.  Its nose has some interesting elements, and it is easy to drink, but it finishes quites short with little to remember.

WHISKEY INFORMATION:
JACK DANIEL'S GENTLEMAN JACK TENNESSEE WHISKY VITAL STATS:
Category: Tennessee Whiskey
Region: Lynchburg, TN, USA
Distillery: Jack Daniel Distillery
Company: Brown-Forman
Mash Bill: 88% corn, 8% rye, 12% malted barley
Barrel Char: #3
Double Mellowed*
Barrel entry proof: unpublished
Age: nas
ABV: 40% (80 Proof)
Price: $26.95 USD in Idaho (sale price)

*Jack Daniels products are filtered through 10 feet of compacted sugar maple charcoal as it comes out of the still, before the liquid is put into barrels.  Known as the Lincoln County process, the charcoal filtering has a mellowing effect on the alcohol.  After aging, juice destined to become Gentleman Jack is given a second charcoal filtration before bottling.  Additional filtering purifies and decreases oakiness, further mellowing and sweetening the whiskey.

ENJOYMENT METHOD:
For the evaluation, I shared the juice neat from Glencairn glasses with my daughter and fellow WhiskySuggest  reviewer Hannah009.

Check out her review for this whiskey elsewhere on the app!

Nose

When first brought to the nose, I get aromas of faint fingernail polish and a sweet potpourri of light red berry nectar, possiblely marachino cherries and hints of banana.  Spices of powdered ginger and white pepper are also faint and gave a certain yeastiness.  I sense an overwhelming sweetness of light vanilla custard, circus peanuts and sweet hard candy.  Yet this is is a fresh and simple whiskey.

Palate

The first sip gives my mouth and throat a surprising but highly subdued burn as the juice gives way to a warm perfume of light fruit potpourri and an herbal aftertaste.  I had to check the ABV!  The marachino cherry and banana fruits sensed on the nose now come through on the palate and compliment spices of cinnamon and cloves.  The sweetness sensed on the nose is also lessened yet the vanilla custard mixes with kraft caramels and simple syrup.  There are also hints of bittet walnut, light oak, and the smokey sweetness of toasted wood.

Balance, Body, Feel and Look:
Gentleman Jack is a simple balance of aromas and flavors with not much going on.  The nose is sweeter than the palate and the juice is gentle, mellow and smooth.  In the Glencairn, a curtain of thin liquid falls into the lightly colored russet pool, leaving a long lasting crown of clinging droplets.

Finish

This Tennessee whiskey finishes short and offers a little light fruit warmth.  It is quite simple and leaves an herbal and clovey but dry aftertaste.  Any woodiness has been mellowed away and is quite light and I find it hard to define as either oaky or mapley.

General description

Fajna, przyjemna, delikatna, lżejsza niż no.7. Słodka w zapachu i smaku, krótki finisz, bardzo pijalna.

General description

Very nice. Mir schmeckt er sehr gut. Sehr mild, ganz leichte süße, trifft genau meinen Geschmack.

Easy Drinker, kurzer Geschmack. Für alle, die es nicht komplex sonder einfach wollen.

General description

Typé vanille, plus subtil que le n.7 avec plus de fleurs

General description

The label makes you think it is going to be nice. WRONG. Save little bit and get yourself Elijah Craig.

General description

light and smooth a hit of oak, honey carmel. not what i would like to drink for the cost. this is what happens when you over filter a bourbon. heading towards tasteless spirits

General description

taste like drinking perfume

General description

Lacks flavor. This whiskey is drinkable, but just kind of there.

General description

Fragrant and soft. Better than Jack Daniel's Rye, original and 100 proof

General description

Great Jack

General description

The kinder, gentler, Old No. 7. One note, kinda boring.

General description

Great on the rocks. Not very smooth, but still more smooth than Black Label. Wood taste with a hint of vanilla.

General description

best jack i have tried yet. not as smooth as i would have liked. great sipping whiskey on the rocks.

General description

Great, best Jack out there

General description

Citrus flavours orange and toffee

General description

Mellow and an easy drinker. Smells a little like vanilla and banana. smooth and sweet without being too much. Good for the money.

General description

Better than No.7. Smooth.

General description

one of the best sipping bourbons

General description

keeps with the JD tradition

Nose

Palate

General description

I often see Gentleman Jack get a bad rep. But i personally do enjoy it. Gentleman Jack is a good daily sipper for a good price. And it's a good edition to keep around the house. It's definitely one to bring out if you are introducing whisky to someone who is just starting out in the whisky world. It's incredibly mellow, easy to drink. And can start someone off on their whisky journey quite nicely. Vanilla, Banana on the nose. Vanilla caramel and oak on the palate, with a nice okay finish.

Nose

Mainly vanilla, and banana. Nothing overly complex. But nice nethertheless. Sometimes hints of peanut and caramel. 20/25

Palate

Vanilla and caramel. Stronger oak notes as it matures in the mouth. Very very mellow. little to no alcohol burn at all. For some that may be a good thing, for others quite the opersite. An extremely easy casual sipper. 17/25

Finish

A very short oaky finish. Maybe even a tiny spice note on the back end. 16/25

General description

Smoother than 'ol No. 7 and not a bad value.

General description

Better than the old no7 for sure.great whiskey from JD

Nose

sweet,vanilla,oak

Palate

sweet like old no7 but smoother

Finish

sweet

General description

Smoother than the original Jack, the taste and nose are samely unimpressive.

Nose

Caramel, vanilla

Palate

Caramel, vanilla

Finish

General description

much better than old number 7, smooth kinda mellow

General description

smooth and not too much flavor distinction. just smoke

General description

Nice step up from Old No7. Used to be a regular go to but pallet has changed and Gentleman has found it's way to the back of the shelf. Nice flavor, little oak and subtle sweetness.

General description

Holy cow does this taste like bananas (I had seen other reviewers mention this, and I can confirm). Not horrible by any stretch, but almost seems like a flavored whisky. Definitely not what I envisioned based on the name "Gentleman Jack". Thought it would be more refined.

General description

smooth af and a bit smokey

General description

Nose

Recht süß, sehr leicht, kaum Schärfe, Klebstoff, Karamell

Palate

Sehr süß, kaum Schärfe, buttrig und ölig

Finish

kurzer Abgang, sehr weich, süß

General description

Definitely not bad, but a little boring. I prefer a little more punch or some zest.

General description

Apple jolly ranchers...yet not sweet. Not too bad, not my favorite, kinda harsh.

General description

Not bad, not my favorite. Oaky. Not particularly sweet. Maybe a little floral and tart. No strong flavors.

General description

can definitely taste the vanilla and coal. Like it more each time I have it. Pretty smooth

General description

Very smooth, kinda watery (ish)

General description

Une légère "coche" au-dessus du no.7.

General description

My Go-To when winding down in the evening. Smooth feeling and good flavor.

General description

Old go to, mixes great with two parts GJ and one part disarono and great in old fashioned

General description

smooth, but less than exciting.

General description

smooth finish, easy

General description

a solid sipper available at most restaurants

General description

Similar to classic burbon smell but a bit sweeter. Citrus taste with a hint of vanilla and smoke. Smooth and overall not bad.

General description

Heavy barrel oak when nosing the bottle. In the glass, heavy corn and vanilla. I also got a hint of maple. First taste was very smoky, along with the classic JD banana notes. Finishes with a little spice on the tongue.

General description

My next choice at the diner with whisky arrangement was this 40% Jack Daniels gentleman Jack.
I only had old Jack no7 so far, so I'm curious about this one.

Nosing is so straightforward 'bourbony', that every blindfolded whisky lover immediately knows this ain't a scotch.
Very smooth with sweet corn and strong vanilla notes. No alcohol burn at all.
A hint of fire and charred wood complement the sweetness.
Much sweeter and milder than old no7 at this point.

The palate is watery sweet with a lot of honey, vanilla and toffee caramel.
The woody spice and smoke keep this one interesting and balanced.

The medium finish has a surprising sharpness at first but soon a citric (slight bitter) sweetness joins the party.

The similarities with old no7 are there, but where old no7 is best used as a mixer, this one is very drinkable neat.

A nice 78 points expression by Jack Daniels.

General description

simple yet complex at the same time

General description

nice grain nose, floral, sweet and petrol. very sweet on the palate, cornflakes, oak, vanilla and almond tart. very nice!

General description

very good
sweet and smooth

General description

rich and sweet

General description

very similar to old no 7
but smoother..
and little bit more sweet but in a pleasant way
very straight forward tennessee whiskey.

General description

nur mit Cola

General description

not fore me..

General description

Way too sweet

General description

Like a mellowed our version of old number seven. Which is what it is, not really worth the price but it’s okay.

General description

Simular to Old N0. 7, but much smoother going down. For the price point, I would stick to the basic Old No 7. Not enough difference in flavor, for me. I also prefer a little hardier whiskey.

General description

Smoother than old no7 brand nice sipping whisky

General description

a bit Sharp, but rich, not bad but had better.

General description

Just like a man. Super Hot with a short finish

Nose

Corn grain alcohol

Palate

Hot Pepper, acid,

Finish

oak

General description

oily texture, good heat off of it, smoother than normal Jack Daniel's,

General description

Very hot with very little flavor. the extra filtering only serves to remove flavor from Jack's original offerings.

Nose

sweet, orange,

Palate

Hot, salt, coal, cardboard orange oil, light smoke

Finish

Rubbing alcohol, orange oil

General description

rather oily, nice mouth feel.

General description

sweet, spices, smooth

General description

An improvement on N°7, but didn't hook me

General description

This is what most people think of when Tennessee whiskey is talked about. It's a good representative of the style. I consider most to be mixers and this is no exception.

General description

Very smooth whiskey but not as much flavor as the other Jacks

General description

better than regular jack. good mixed or with ice - daily nip.

General description

Aroma: soft and gentle.
Taste: First gentle and oily, then sweet.
Finish: Uncomplicated, sweet

General description

Good mixing bourbon

General description

Nicht umwerfend aber besser als der Standard

Nose

Mild, Vanille und die typische Klebstoffnote, allerdings leichter als beim Standard

Palate

Extrem mild, der Alkohol ist kaum zu spüren, süß, etwas Eichenwürze und blumige Noten

Finish

Kurz bis mittellanger, sanfter Abgang mit etwas Eiche

General description

Smoother than regular jack. Decent on the rocks or mixed. Nothing huge stands out in the flavor profile

General description

pretty good for the price

General description

An OK drink but I prefer No7

General description

pretty good. better than regular jack

General description

Enjoyable all purpose Tennessee whiskey. Has a great sweet, honey and vanilla nose. Taste is fairly good with evidence of nuts, wood, smoke and spice. Medium finish with a Smokey aftertaste. Soothing.

Nose

Honey, fruit, vanilla

Palate

wood, Honey, spice, smoke

Finish

smoke

General description

nice but not as good as normal Jack.

Nose

sweet

Palate

Finish

tickles the nose and has a celery taste.

General description

Very smooth, has a sweet taste. A splash of generic fruit is present. Very strong oak taste

General description

Lekker, wat zachter dan de normale Jack Danieks

General description

ehh, alcohol overpowers almost all the notes.

General description

This was my first bottle of whiskey. I'm new to whiskey but enjoying the new taste. I don't know much about all the differences in whiskey yet or about the descriptions you use but I would definitely recommend this bottle.

General description

smooth but with an odd finish

General description

Tasty

General description

Smooth.

General description

nice but had better...JD name sells it..bit disappointed..can buy better cheaper

General description

smooth...little heat

General description

Pretty disappointed after all the Jack Daniels hype. A good whiskey to have for friends who don't drink whiskey often. Notes of boiled peanuts with a little bit of sweetness. Very smooth and easy to drink so I understand the appeal but not for me.

General description

Sweet, like it with ice.

General description

very nice, teaste good, one of the best from JD

General description

One of the best!
Perfect to drink without ice! The room temperature is the best to feel this unique taste!

General description

By far the most tasty and economical jack to me.

General description

Hele fijne zachte bourbon! Heerlijk subtiel en zoet van smaak. Zoek je een keer wat anders dan Schotse whisky? Dan is deze bourbon wel aan te raden!

General description

Drinking this always reminds me of a ballgame. Peanuts and cracker jacks (caramel popcorn) stick out the most. smooth, and still carries the signature jack charcoal flavor, but it's more subdued and mellow in this version.

General description

uncle jack!

General description

this is a fine whisky and a great 'go to' to keep on hand. Smoother than old#7 but just as good. If you entertain and have folks who like to mix it or on the rocks, or just neat, it doesn't disappoint nor hurt your wallet.

General description

Une version plus douce du classique n°7.

General description

Non torbato, sapore pieno e delicato

General description

nice whisky. no bourbon!!

price quality vertellen good

General description

Much better then old Nr. 7. It is very smooth with a taste of coal.

General description

beter dan de gewone jack Verder niet heel bijzonder.
Tennessee

General description

Fine bottle

General description

Fine

General description

Pretty decent Tennessee whiskey, definitely better than Jack Daniel's flagship Nr. 7, but I don't think that the price jump is justified.

General description

Very nice whiskey but it's young whiskey and costs a few

General description

smooth little bite

General description

it was nice. I'd drink it again.

General description

erg vlak
