Jack Daniel’s New Whiskey Is So High-Proof They Had to Design a Special Cork to Contain It

https://robbreport.com/food-drink/spirits/jack-daniels-small-batch-coy-hill-high-proof-1234696224/

The Jack Daniel's Special Edition Coy Hill High Proof 2.0 is the same recipe as Old No. 7, but at a much higher ABV.

While I am not a fan of their mass-produced namesake whiskey, Jack Daniel's makes some absolutely EXCELLENT higher end bottles. Their Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye is one of the best ryes I've ever had, no joke. I would love the chance to try this. Even their Bonded is great, and it's a touch easier to find.

Never been a huge fan of bourbon, whiskey or scotch but I love gin and tequila. Hendricks is my fave gin and Don Julio Anejo is my go-to tequila.

I'm in your corner on this one, love a good G n T, vodka would be second on my list then whiskey.
I have tried with bourbon and scotch but just can't develop a taste for either.
