Launch

Released in February 2025, Jack Daniel's 12-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey Batch 3 shared its announcement with a new 14-Year-Old, the first whiskey the Jack Daniel Distillery had offered at that age since the early-to-mid 1900s, and with the 10-Year-Old Batch 4. Batch 3 stays at 107 proof (53.5% ABV) in a 700 mL bottle, and Jack Daniel's described it in the words it used for Batch 1: sweet and creamy, with pipe tobacco, seasoned oak and butterscotch.

Nº 01

The Elemental Distinction

Announced 24 February 2025. Its companions were the new 14-Year-Old, at 126.3 proof, and the 10-Year-Old Batch 4, at 97.

Note reissued. Jack Daniel's 2025 description of Batch 3 repeats, word for word, the one it published for Batch 1 in March 2023.

Third batch at 107. Batches 1, 2 and 3 of the 12-Year-Old were each announced at 107 proof (53.5% ABV).

Grain bill. Whisky Advocate and Breaking Bourbon both report 80% corn, 12% malted barley and 8% rye for the 2025 release.

Fletcher's framing. Chris Fletcher said the 2025 whiskeys show how a little extra time in the barrels can produce something special.

A US release. On the distillery's own list of 12-Year-Old releases, Batch 3 is the 2025 entry, offered to US buyers in limited quantities.

Sensory Profile & Strategy

A note reissued

Sensory Profile

Distillery note, February 2025: sweet and creamy notes of pipe tobacco, seasoned oak and butterscotch (Jack Daniel's wording).
Precedent: the identical sentence Jack Daniel's issued for Batch 1 in March 2023.

Strategic Position

In February 2025 the Aged Series reached three ages at once: 97 proof at ten years, 107 at twelve and 126.3 at fourteen. Batch 3 follows the 2024 batch from the upper floors and lower ricks and precedes the 2026 batch with a maple and graham cracker note; above it in that year's lineup stood the 126.3-proof fourteen-year of February 2025.

Production Methodology

Batch 3 carries the class name Tennessee Whiskey, which Tennessee law reserves for whiskey made in the state from a mash of at least 51% corn, filtered through maple charcoal before aging, and aged in new, charred oak barrels in Tennessee. Coverage of the February 2025 release by Whisky Advocate and Breaking Bourbon gives the grain bill: corn 80%, malted barley 12%, rye 8%. Batch 3 was aged twelve years and bottled at 107 proof.
