Jack Daniel's Master Distiller Series Edition 3 - Lem Tolley 1941 - 1964 Tennessee Whiskey
In stock
"Never vary from the recipe. This isn't whiskey, this is family." - Lem Tolley
Released 2014
Almost exactly a year after the 2nd bottle in this series debuted, this 3rd bottle in the Master Distiller Series was released by the Distillery. Commemorating Lem Tolley, who was the Master Distiller from 1941 to 1964, this bottle became available late in the Summer of 2014.
Mr Jack's Grandnephew Lem Tolley was said to be a pretty stern fellow. Good thing, during his watch, the tiny Tennessee distillery grew quickly. And Lem was sternly set on making more whiskey without making it differently.
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.

Rich golden amber with honeyed warmth and subtle coppery glints.
Nose
Caramel-drenched vanilla mingles with soft brown sugar and creamy corn, warmed by oak. Subtle citrus zest and gentle spice lift the aroma, while a whisper of charcoal and light smoke grounds the bouquet in classic Tennessee whiskey elegance.
Palate
Silky on the palate, showcasing caramel and vanilla sweetness lifted by toasted oak. Notes of raisin and leather unfold, underpinned by a gentle peppery spice. Medium-bodied, with a refined mouthfeel and a warm, lingering finish of wood and citrus zest.
Finish
Long, warm finish of vanilla and caramel sweetness, carried by toasted oak and a subtle spice. Silky and lingering, it fades to an elegant, refined echo that honors the Master Distiller’s uncompromising family recipe.
