Jack Daniel's No. 27 Gold

I bought a JD Number 27 from the airport around the year 2015 and have not drink any of the two (1L and 750cl). With all of these good comments, I might have to invite my brother and consume the little one. I don't see this number 27 again at any airport.

The nicest thing about this “whiskey” is the package, otherwise .. NOTHING is good .. to pay 69.90 euro for this horrible burning after taste? i think i have been scammed by JD’s.

Rocking 'on the rocks'

9th July 2019

I never looked at Jack Daniels as the sort of drink that someone as experienced with whiskey/whisky as I am would take any interest in. In my circle, JD is a college whiskey best suited for mixing with Coke, so it doesn't interest me. So when I saw this big golden box for sale at my local liquor store (in the USA, nowhere near Tennessee) for $100, I went for it, and oh. my. god. I am completely blown away with this whiskey. It's smooth and mellow, that is for sure. It doesn't burn at all, unlike the No 7. It's absolutely perfect neat or on the rocks for sipping. I wouldn't mix this with anything, not even cocktails. Great, great stuff. Would buy more but they were sold out when I went back to get another bottle.

travelled to site to taste. bought a bottle, chill and serve with good friends or family.
my number one pick of drinks.

21st November 2018

Tried this at the distillery on a tour and cant get enough of it. No need to mix this with anything.

16th October 2018

We did the tasting tour at the distillery, I liked it so much I bought a bottle. But I just had a glass, neat, after mowing in the Georgia heat. My oh my, what a whiskey. All of my whiskey snobbery over the years has earned me a bunch of overpriced bourbons only fit for mixing because of their tastebud burning qualities, but this, this is a sipping whiskey worth celebrating!

When I was just starting out going to pubs I thought "JD & Coke" was a cool drink. Then I started learning about single malt and stayed away from it for decades. In recent years I have bought No.7 a few times, mainly to drink neat with an American friend and have been quite happy with its lively, charcoal-infused, messiness. Not a patch on Maker's Mark of course, but "honest" and considering it is only 3-4 years old, I can understand the decision to blast the stuff with burnt oak, to force-feed tannins down its throat. Certainly, few single malts would taste much better at that age.
The No.27 is however a completely different beast. I assume that "double matured" means 6-8 years old. I have had a couple of measures over the last two days and this whisky is not straightforward. It doesn't have the blue-collar/muscle-car appeal of No.7, nor does it have the complexity and multi-layered sweetness/lemon/smoke/peat/sherry of a single malt or Armagnac. It is the only whisky I have ever had which is dry. Actively, very, dry. I can taste the Rye. I can taste the Maple. But overall, the effect is astringent, somewhat thin and a bit, well....unusual. Whilst drinking it, I am reminded of the Black Russian Rye bread I used to buy. It almost makes me crave pastrami!
I reserve judgement at this point, but do feel that potential buyers should know
1. This is a distinctive product which you might either hate or love.
2. This is not a smoother and richer No.7.

tried this a couple weeks ago at a friends house. This is one of the absolute best from Jack Daniels.

I've been drinking JD for about 30 years now. This is the best Jack i have ever had. The Sinatra was also excellent. Ordered 3 bottles so far 1 of which i gave to my Dad who is a Squire like myself. Going to order more. The shipping is worth it.

17th December 2017

I bought a bottle while visiting the distillery in Lynchburg Tennessee and left me wanting more. Unfortunately only place in the USA to purchase so far is at the distillery. I’m glad Masters of Malt is here to help get me my fix! Very happy with purchase and arrived in California in just a few days! I would recommend all whiskey drinkers to try Jack Gold and can’t go wrong ordering from Masters of Malt!

1st December 2017

Very smooth worth the expensive doesn't compare to gentleman jack in anyway would recommend to any JD drinker

25th November 2017

21st September 2017

My Wife loves it! I'm astonished!

20th September 2017

This is the best drink I have ever had in whisky all my life...I can swear by it. It is really a good drink to drink with your uncle...

18th February 2017

Excellent would not let me post 5 stars

13th February 2017

Best I've ever tasted. So smooth and full of flavor.

23rd January 2017

It is the best thing that is tasted ....

17th January 2017

First try, first buy..want more.. don't just read comments try it..

27th November 2016

I spend around $150 a bottle for this Jack. It is not sold USA . I like it better then some of the scotches I drink.. Well worth the price and shipping

7th November 2016

By far the smoothest Jack Daniels I have ever had. The double mellowing has left nothing but awesome flavors.

7th November 2016

its very smooth but seems to have lost a bit of its JD flavor. I definitely prefer Single Barrel or even Gentlemen Jack

3rd November 2016

Just purchased in cozumel, mexico last week. Took my first sip tonight and ...wow! I love orig. JD and this is a smooth, refined sipping version of the original. Even my husband, who is a scotch drinker, was wowed by it. He doesn't like to drink Tennessee bourbon but was impressed with how smooth no. 27 gold was. I am so glad I splurged in the duty free shop and brought home a bottle!!

Good whisky

11th December 2015

I found this to be somewhat disappointing. On the one hand, JD have done a fantastic job at creating what I would consider to be their most refined whisky yet, and so for this reason I do not think its price is unreasonable. However, its mellow flavour and smoothness really leaves it too far removed from what I consider JD to be. It is almost flavourless compared to the full flavour one expects of JD, and the fact that it is so smooth also detracts from the JD brand. I like a smooth whisky, but I want just a little roughness when I drink JD.

In summary, JD have done a masterful job at creating a smooth, mellow whisky. I just think they've done too good a job - very easy to drink, but just not enough character left to know this is JD once it is out of the bottle.
