What was the deal with the green label stuff? IIRC, the price was different by a dollar.
I don’t recall . . . but maybe it was only 65 Proof???
Been a long time since I took a sip but it was indeed awful.
Found this:
Green Label
Jack Daniels Green Label has a lighter flavor and color than it’s counterpart. The character of the whiskey is smoother, and the overall taste is mellower than the Black. The Green Label is not aged as long as the Black. It is stored on the lower floors in the Jack Daniels warehouse, a position that retards the aging process, producing a less mature version of the whiskey.
Black Label
The Black Label, like the Green, goes through the process of charcoal filtering, and is stored in charred oak barrels. However, these barrels are not stored in the center of the warehouse which expedites the maturing process. The flavor is stronger than the Green Label and the color is darker, making the character more complex. Black Label is more expensive than the Green Label.
