Jack Daniel's McLaren Formula 1 Limited Edition Whiskey
Jack Daniel's has partnered with the McLaren Formula 1 Team to launch a limited-edition whiskey, inspired by the shared focus on craftsmanship, innovation and performance.
The packaging design references the Halo safety device used in Formula 1 cars, while the release marks one of the distillery's most limited global editions.
The whiskey is charcoal mellowed and matured in handcrafted barrels made from staves that have been aged outdoors for an extended period before barrel production. According to the distillery, this additional seasoning time softens the wood tannins and contributes to a darker colour and a smoother flavour profile with caramel and chocolate notes.
