Released

Maple, brown sugar and graham cracker lead the distillery note for Jack Daniel's 12-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey Batch 4, which the Jack Daniel Distillery announced in Lynchburg on 24 March 2026 with the 14-Year-Old Batch 2 and the 10-Year-Old Batch 5. Batch 4 is bottled at 107 proof (53.5% ABV) in a 700 mL bottle, and its note leaves behind the pipe tobacco and butterscotch that led the descriptions of Batches 1 to 3.

Nº 01

The Elemental Distinction

The 2026 trio. Issued with the 14-Year-Old Batch 2 at 117.6 proof and the 10-Year-Old Batch 5 at 97 proof.

Classic mash, maple charcoal. Jack Daniel's classic Tennessee Whiskey grain bill of 80% corn, 12% malted barley and 8% rye, mellowed drop by drop through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal.

Lynchburg oak. Matured in new American white oak barrels at Lynchburg, Tennessee.

Four batches at 107. Each 12-Year-Old batch from 2023 to 2026 was announced at 107 proof.

A release-wide sweepstakes. For the 2026 Aged Series release, Jack Daniel's ran its first online sweepstakes, hosted by the White Rabbit Bottle Shop in Lynchburg for buyers aged 21 and over: one designated bottle from the release per winner, entries open until 7 April 2026.

A US allocation. Offered from March 2026 in limited quantities across the United States; the bottle is 700 mL.

Strategic Position

Batch 4 is the 2026 rung of the Aged Series, between the ten-year at 97 proof and the fourteen-year at 117.6. It follows the 2025 batch that reissued the debut's note, and it was announced with the 117.6-proof fourteen-year of the 2026 lineup and the ten-year's fifth batch of March 2026.

Records & Assurance

Production Methodology

Jack Daniel's described one process for every whiskey in the 2026 Aged Series: its classic Tennessee Whiskey grain bill of 80% corn, 12% malted barley and 8% rye, distilled and then mellowed drop by drop through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal, and aged in new American white oak barrels in Lynchburg. Batch 4 is the twelve-year result of that process, at 107 proof.
