Flavor Profile Differences
The fruit-versus-grain contrast drives this one.
- Evan Williams Bottled-in-Bond: Arguably the best value in all of bourbon: a bonded 100-proof Kentucky whiskey for under twenty dollars. Straightforward vanilla and caramel with just enough oak, and nothing at all to apologise for.
- Jack Daniel’s 10 Year: The return of an age-stated Jack Daniel's after more than a century. Ten years add dark fruit, cocoa and real oak to the familiar banana-and-caramel Lynchburg profile.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Go with Evan Williams Bottled-in-Bond if you want a bonded, honest, full-proof Kentucky bourbon for the price of a cocktail without hunting for it.
- Go with Jack Daniel’s 10 Year if you want an older, oak-forward Jack Daniel's with dark fruit and cocoa with an older age statement.
