It has to be said, the majority of Jack Daniels drinkers these days are primarily drinking it with mixers rather than straight. This is a niche that Mr Daniels has very successfully cornered over the last decade...the social more accessible whisky, bourbon to be precise.

Gentleman Jack is a widely available alternative to the classic No7 label. Coming in the standard 70cl it retails at a few pounds more than the standard Jack in the same size... usually between £25 and £30. Released in 1988 to the USA consumer initially, it was known as a 'superpremium' whisky , of a higher quality to the Jack Daniels No7 brand.

If you are a Jack fan, and are looking for that familiar smooth taste with a little bit extra then it may be worth grabbing a bottle and giving it a shot. The taste is very 'woody' similar to more traditional whiskies, so a good way for casual drinkers to get acquainted with some traditional tastes.

Its alcohol content, although equal to No7 does taste a little stronger and is arguably more enjoyable to drink straight due to the extra taste and bite. In the common , with coke combination it is also a very tasty drink which I personally could drink all night long.
