Jack Daniel's Master Distiller No.5 Limited Edition "Frank Bobo" 750mL is a collectible release from the Jack Daniel’s Master Distiller Series, created to honor Frank Bobo, the fifth Master Distiller in the history of the Jack Daniel Distillery. Bobo served as Master Distiller from 1966 to 1988, overseeing production during a period of tremendous growth for Jack Daniel’s. Despite rapidly increasing demand, Bobo remained committed to maintaining the whiskey’s traditional production standards, famously emphasizing that the distillery would rather make less whiskey than compromise its quality. This limited-edition bottle contains classic Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).

The whiskey offers the familiar smooth and approachable profile that has made Jack Daniel’s an American whiskey icon. Aromas of caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, and ripe banana lead into a balanced palate of brown sugar, vanilla, toasted nuts, gentle fruit, and oak spice. The finish is smooth and mellow, with lingering caramel, vanilla, subtle spice, and charred oak.
