[Jack Daniels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/distillery-series-16) is launching a limited edition barrel-proof rye whiskey in celebration of its long-standing history as an American whiskey producer.

Just just 200 barrels of the '[Tennessee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bonded-tennessee-whiskey) Rye Whiskey' produced, the exclusive release is intended for those with an acute taste for the full-bodied spirit. Each bottle contains uncut whiskey taken directly from the barrel, giving it a richer flavor due to the lack of dilution.

Assistant Master Distiller Chris Fletcher spoke to the limited edition launch, stating "The full barrel-proof version of our rye whiskey shines with amazing balance. The complexity from start to finish is unmatched. This is the first broad release of barrel-proof rye whiskey here at [Jack Daniel’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daniels-canned-cocktails), and we can’t wait to get it out to the world.”
