Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Coy Hill 2021 — 2.4 proof points above the BTAC George T. Stagg 2016 all-time record, from the hilltop Coy Hill barrel house where extreme seasonal temperature cycling concentrates Tennessee whiskey to proofs unachievable anywhere else on the Lynchburg campus.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoy Hill represents the outer limit of what the Jack Daniel's barrel aging system can naturally produce. The hilltop location subjects barrels to the most intense seasonal temperature swings on the property — the hottest summers, the coldest winters, the most aggressive cycling of whiskey in and out of the charred white oak. Over time, this extreme environment concentrates the spirit far beyond what standard barrel house aging achieves, producing barrels that exit the warehouse at proofs that place them among the most powerful commercially available American whiskeys ever released.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 146.5 proof, this 2021 Coy Hill barrel surpasses the BTAC GTS 2016 record by 2.4 points.
