"If it was good enough for Uncle Jack, it's good enough for me." - Jess Motlow
Released 2013
Late in the Summer of 2013, the 2nd bottle in the Master Distiller Series was released. Honoring Jess Motlow, the Master Distiller from 1911 to 1941, this bottle was initially released with the incorrect date printed on the bottle, showing 1911 to 1944. This was quickly realized by the Distillery but some lucky people were able to purchase an “error” bottle before they were recalled.
Jess Motlow was quite a character known for his storytelling and taste for good whiskey. But the strength of his character was proven by preserving his Uncle Jack's way of making whiskey through 29 years of Tennessee prohibition.
Making its debut in September of 2012, this new series celebrates the 6 Master Distillers throughout the history of the Jack Daniel Distillery.
Available in 2 sizes (700ml & 1L), each bottle is filled with 86 proof whiskey. They are also each individually numbered and sold in a collectible box. For display purposes, when 2 boxes are put side-by-side they complete an image of the Master Distiller being commemorated.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber with copper-gold glow and a honey-bronze sheen.
Nose
Vanilla and caramel rise with creamy corn and toasted oak. Hints of orange zest, maple and gentle spice weave through a subtle char, revealing a tobacco-tinged Tennessee warmth on the nose.
Palate
Silky and smooth on the palate, this whiskey opens with caramel and vanilla cream, a touch of maple and toffee. Subtle orange zest brightens the mid-palate, while toasted oak lends backbone. A whisper of baking spice, cinnamon and clove, emerges, guiding a warm, clean finish with lingering vanilla and a soft charcoal sweetness.
Finish
Silky and inviting, the finish coats the palate with warm vanilla and toasty oak, slowly unfurling into a delicate, peppery spice. Caramel sweetness lingers as the charcoal-mellowed depth settles, leaving a clean, refined fade and a bright kiss of citrus on the tail.
