Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Tennessee Whiskey
Main Street Liquor Private Selection
Barrel #26-03949 • Barrel House 03-05 • 127.1 Proof
Experience one exceptional barrel selected exclusively through the Jack Daniel's Personal Collection Program. This Main Street Liquor Private Selection is not a standard production release—it is the complete expression of one individual barrel, chosen specifically for Main Street Liquor and bottled at its natural barrel strength.
Every bottle in this release originates from Barrel #26-03949, matured in Barrel House 03-05 before being bottled on May 12, 2026 at an impressive 127.1 Proof (63.55% ABV). Unlike batched whiskey, where numerous barrels are blended together for consistency, this release preserves the distinctive character developed within a single barrel from maturation through bottling.
Its rarity is equally compelling. Production records show only 29 cases bottled from this individual barrel. Based on a standard six-bottle case configuration, that represents approximately 174 bottles, making this an exceptionally limited opportunity to own a genuine Main Street Liquor Private Selection.
During the Jack Daniel's private barrel-selection experience, the provenance of Barrel House 03-05 was specifically discussed because of its connection to a previous highly allocated Jack Daniel's release. While Barrel #26-03949 stands entirely on its own and is not represented as part of any previous special release, that documented barrelhouse history made this selection especially noteworthy during the picking process.
Selected specifically for Main Street Liquor, this release was chosen for collectors and enthusiasts seeking authentic single-barrel Tennessee Whiskey, full barrel-proof intensity, and the individuality that only one carefully selected barrel can provide.
Once Barrel #26-03949 is gone, this exact whiskey can never be recreated.

Whiskey Production / Mash Bill
Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Tennessee Whiskey begins with the distillery's classic Tennessee Whiskey mash bill:
- 80% Corn
- 8% Rye
- 12% Malted Barley
Before entering new American oak barrels, the whiskey undergoes the historic Lincoln County Process, where it is slowly mellowed through sugar maple charcoal. This traditional Tennessee Whiskey method contributes to the whiskey's signature character before years of barrel maturation.
Unlike standard bottlings, Single Barrel Barrel Proof Tennessee Whiskey is bottled directly from the selected barrel at its natural proof rather than being reduced to a standard bottling strength.
