The 10yr is 300 at stores near me and the 12 is 400 (western NY). Shelf turds at those prices, they been sitting since the "allocated events" back in Nov-Dec. I want to buy these but holding out for closer to SRP, just sick of the chase and the prices. Perfectly content with the plentiful single barrel proofs.

They have one 10 year left for 114 I think

Picked up 2 of each of these bottles this year. I didn’t pull the trigger last year and regretted it. I honestly don’t see these too often in my area. Super excited to share this with some friends.

Update! I went into the local BevMo on Wednesday and the cashier asked me if I wanted the last two bottles that they got that morning. JD 10yr 85.00 and JD 12yr 95.00 bucks! Had a pour of each last night! Awesome!

I appreciate all your reviews, especially the final breakdown. It is helpful in figuring out what to hunt and what to spend. Keep up the great work!

Have yet to see them but will pick up the 12 if I see it near SRP. Thanks for the review and cheers Jason 🥃😎

Great video. I really like their single barrel select and barrel proof so if I see them at retail I would probably pick one up especially the 12Y. I don't think the NH stores have them so would have to be out of state. The 12Y interests me more for the reason you stated and that is there is RR and ER that are really good 10Y when you can find them. RR is easier to find around here.

I have both of last years 10/12 and love them both. Will definitely be looking for the new ones.

Hope to find one. At MSRP I'd try both.

Nice reviews! Still waiting for the 12yr! Around me it’s 599.00

Great review. JD10 vs Old Fo 1924 would be an interesting double bass.

The OF is not good. Get the 1920

I am a huge Jack fan. I am looking forward to the 2024 releases! Hey! I will be in your hometown with Randy S. at the end of the month. I would love to meet you while in town if the opportunity permits.

Great to hear your thoughts on these. Sadly they are not up here in my market, but still good to know they exist and how some of their flavours play out. Cheers!

Lucked out and grabbed the new 12 year the other day. Excited to try it soon!

Three or four months ago I had a sample of the 10 year, and it was superb - the first time I'd positively liked something from Lynchburg. Since then I've had the Single Barrel Barrel Proof, and I find the taste is similar, though of course the SBBP is more authoritative. 🙂

Sounds like another great set of releases from JD. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for these!! Cheers

Got my 10 and 12 again this year. Can’t wait to crack them this weekend.

Never a big JD fan but have a 2023 10 year and really enjoy it. Feel the more recent releases of the 10 and 12 have uped their game. Will be looking for a 12 year this year. Great review.

Regular JD is meh...but almost all their special releases are some of the best whiskies on the market. Even the regular cask strength is pretty easy to find for around $65 and is awesome.

Glad I saw this, I was expecting these to come out in March. I overpaid for the 12 last year but was still glad to get it. Hopefully I'll be able to grab it at MSRP this year. Big JD fan.

Absolutely loved the 12 last year. Hope I can snag another one this year - cheers Jason!

I would pick up either, I had taste of both last year and they were quite good.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, v🥰🥰🥰🥰ery helpful information and helps a new liquor store keeping up with the industry.

I bought my JD 12 on January 30th. I didn’t realize it was batch 2 until I got home. Unfortunately, I didn’t pay srp but it was a bottle I’ve wanted for some time.

I've had these for a month or more on Tennessee. The 12 year is... Soooooo... Delicious...!

Never seen those where I'm at lol, gotta love liquor control states

Only see both 10 and 12 year at secondary prices. The store close by that always carrys them is asking 299 for 10 year and 399 for 12 year. Haven’t had the pleasure of trying either one, maybe this year I’ll get lucky. 😅

Always a great unbiased review! Thank you!

Got my batch 2 12 today payed $189 for it ,the local distributor was making store buy multiple cases of crap to get one of each bottle .

Welcome to inside baseball. This is the way the allocation game works…kinda. If you’re a low volume store, you’re not gonna get much unless you buy a bunch of crap. Either that, or your salesperson parks 10 cases of Weller Full Proof in your store room promising to buy it back from you. But then again, the liquor store is the lowest ranked among the third tier. The top spot goes to restaurants and bars and that’s where a ton of allocation goes. It doesn’t matter that a 15k square foot independent liquor store sales are 10 times greater on bourbon alone, they get better allocation because of some totally misguided perception

Jack is doing an excellent job the past few years. Def making up for ages of #7 bottles and their other bottom shelf offerings. Just killing it IMO. 🥃😎😎

Still a lot of last years on the shelves around me but none cheap. 12 year between 200 and 300 and the 10 year between 150 and 200.

Sounds like the consistency is there so that’s a great sign. I’m surprised you didn’t rate JD12 as buy and back it up seeing how it finished #5 for you last year.

Just picked up the 12 for retail here in MA

I got JD12 b2 on January 26th!

As Jay Said… JD12 dramatically opened up past the shoulders. I was worried because on first crack I wasn’t impressed.

Still haven't seen either of these bottles. Or as the guy from Spaceballs once said " We ain't found shit". Hope to try them someday. Great review Jason!

Psyched that I tracked one down this morning after missing it last year! 104.99 plus tax.

Crown Royal Peach is literally the Blantons equivalent to the flavored whiskey lovers.

Jack Daniel's produces winners. Nice review, J!

I am going to check tomorrow morning and pray they have a 12 year at normal price

I feel like the flavor of last year's JD12 blew many people away, because there really hadn't been anything like that released before. Would this year's 12 year release have cracked your top 10 last year, or was last year's release just a massive step up from this one?

@TheMashandDrum

5 ай бұрын

I think this 12 year is a bit of a step down. Its less spicy and I like spice.

I haven’t seen the 12 for under $400 or the 10 year under $300 here in So Cal so it’s an easy pass for me.

I bought these 10 and 12 the second week of January so he's definitely not the first to get them. I sent Drinking Buddy some samples and he did a review last week.

I thought JD12 Batch 1 fell a little flat in the palette. The nose was huge but the palette was just good. If you think Batch 2 is a little less punchy than 1, then I'm guessing I probably don't need to hunt for this one. Thank you Sir!

Did you say 700ml?

JD10 this year is phenomenal

jack is too large of a company for them to have their 10 year allocated and marked up while on the other hand you have buffalo trace with eagle rare 10 year at $40

Good label BP was much better than 10 year last year and it is cheap and higher proof. Hard pass on the 10 yr.

Bought the 10 last year and wasn’t impressed so not going to buy this year’s. Would buy the 12 this year around SRP but unlikely to find in my area and absolutely will not overpay for any whiskey the crooks are trying to get out of you these days.

I found me a JD12 yr old batch 02 today for $80.00 plus tax at a tiny liquor store in Connecticut. You never know what you’ll find in these little stores.

I just gotta say, I greatly appreciate the video quality of this particular video. I understand the dark, contrasty, “moody” feel that a lot of whiskey-tubers are going for in their videos, but it makes it quite annoying. Your color grading is unique and quality here is *chef’s kiss*. 🤌
