Jack Daniel’s X McLaren Racing 2025 Limited Edition Whiskey is bottled at 86 Proof.
Jack Daniel’s has unveiled its 2025 limited edition McLaren Racing X Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, marking the continuation of their partnership with the McLaren Formula 1 Team. This year’s edition comes with a bold new packaging design and a higher proof, set at 86 proof (43% ABV). The collaboration celebrates the shared legacies of both brands, blending the tradition of Jack Daniel’s with the excitement of Formula 1 racing.
A Bold New Flavor Profile with a Richer Finish
The 2025 limited edition whiskey maintains the classic Jack Daniel’s mash bill of 80% corn, 8% rye, and 12% malted barley. Distilled in Lynchburg, Tennessee, the whiskey undergoes the signature charcoal mellowing process, adding to its smooth character. This higher-proof version delivers a richer, more robust flavor profile with balanced notes of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak. The annual, limited edition whiskey is great for collectors and fans alike.
A Celebration of McLaren’s Success
Reflecting on the partnership, Jamie Butler, Jack Daniel’s Global Brand Director, shared, “2024 was a fantastic year for the McLaren Formula 1 Team which saw the team secure the coveted Constructors’ Championship title. We couldn’t be more proud to partner with a brand that continues to redefine success in the pursuit of continued improvement.” This limited edition bottle’s new label and packaging design are a tribute to the spirit of excellence that both McLaren and Jack Daniel’s embody.
McLaren’s Ongoing Partnership with Jack Daniel’s
Nick Martin, Co-Chief Commercial Officer of McLaren Racing, also expressed excitement about the release, stating, “We’re delighted to launch our third limited edition bottle in collaboration with Jack Daniel’s, offering our fans a special way of celebrating another exciting year of going racing together.” The 2025 McLaren X Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey is a must-have for enthusiasts, offering both an elevated taste experience and a commemorative piece from the dynamic partnership between these two iconic brands.
