Flavor Profile Differences
Proof and heat dominate the difference.
- Jack Daniel’s 14 Year: The oldest Jack Daniel's in over a century, bottled near barrel proof. Butterscotch and bakery spice over rich leather, old oak and pipe tobacco.
- Redemption Bourbon: Straightforward sourced MGP at a modest proof, and about as clear a reference sample of the high-rye MGP profile as you can buy. Thin neat, but a reliable and inexpensive cocktail base.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Go with Jack Daniel’s 14 Year if you want the oldest, strongest Jack Daniel's on the shelf with significantly more proof behind it.
- Go with Redemption Bourbon if you want an inexpensive, unambiguous example of the MGP high-rye style for mixing at a significantly lower price point.
Best enjoyed neat, rocks (Jack Daniel’s 14 Year); old-fashioned, cocktails, highball (Redemption Bourbon).
