It involves dripping the product through a vat 20 feet deep with charcoal made from maple wood. This process is what makes Jack Daniels not be allowed to be labeled as Bourbon. It adds a sweetness and also takes out some harshness (hence mellowing.) Gentleman Jack (version of Jack Daniel's) utilises this method both at the start of the process (new distillate before it goes into the barrel like reg Jack) as well as just before bottling.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
