Just like last year (and the year before), Jack Daniel’s is releasing a limited-edition Tennessee whiskey to celebrate its partnership with the McLaren Formula 1 Racing Team and help you gear up for the new racing season.

This is the third McLaren Racing X Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey release. This 86-proof Tennessee whiskey combines sleek racing-inspired packaging and award-winning whiskey. The whiskey starts with Jack Daniel’s iconic mash bill featuring 80% corn, 8% rye, and 12% malted barley. Like all of the brand’s whiskeys, it was mellowed using ten feet of charcoal using the Lincoln County Process. It was then matured in new, American white oak barrels.

The result is a rich, complex whiskey loaded with flavors like caramelized sugar, charred oak, toasted vanilla beans, gentle spices, and a mellow, warm, lingering finish.

“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,” said Jamie Butler, Jack Daniel’s Global Brand Director.

“This year’s McLaren X Jack Daniel’s limited edition bottle features a new label and packaging design and higher proof that embodies the same spirit Mr. Jack himself lived by – Every day we make it, we make it the best we can.”

Where can I find it?

1977 Rolex GMT-Master II survives being ejected from a cockpit only to land in a special collection

A U.S. Airforce pilot was forced to eject mid-flight wearing his Rolex. Fifty years later, it's sitting solid in a special collection

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Air Force pilot Captain David Bartell fired up his F105-D for a training mission like any other time. Nothing was different—a routine training mission to link up with a KC-135 aerial tanker to refuel. As soon as the plane lifted from the runway, the engine blew, and he began to plummet toward the Earth. At the last second, when it was clear he wasn't pulling out of the dive, he yanked a lever near his cockpit chair, and the canopy exploded off the frame and catapulted him 100 feet into the air. A few seconds later, when his chute opened, and he began to drift down toward the safety of the ground, he discovered the plane had become a fireball on the ground. He narrowly navigated away from danger a second time before he found solid ground. Then, when he was about to breathe again, pops sounding like cannon fire sounded. Driving him into the bushes. Witnesses to this real-life crash on Thursday, July 13, 1977, said Capt. Bartell only responded with "What a ride." One of the most intriguing parts of this story isn't the failed training mission, but that on his wrist was a Rolex GMT-Master II. Fifty years later, Bob's Watches Founder and CEO Paul Altieri has procured it for his own collection.

You can find another Pepsi GMT. You can't find another life story attached to it. - Paul Altieri, Founder and CEO of Bob's Watches

From dirt to downtown: Adidas drops new TERREX Freehiker 3

Built for the wild but styled for the street. The new TERREX deepens the brands hiker collection

Clothing, Footwear, Shoe

Last fall, I got the opportunity to experience Lake Tahoe for the first time. I loved the downtown areas with the mountain town vibe. I loved the fine rock beach on the banks of the lake. I tried yoga for the first time and figured out that I was both open to it and terrible at it. But, above all, the hiking around the famous lake is the draw, and I got to get my first trial of the Adidas TERREX Freehiker. The hiking functionality, combined with the stylistic aspects Adidas has always been known for, was a great experience. Now, the iconic shoe brand drops the third iteration, deepening the collection even further.

Our ambition with the Freehiker 3 was to double down on what made this franchise iconic from the start: exceptional comfort for long days on rolling terrain. Tom Louage, Sr. Director Product, Adidas.

Dressing as yourself is the new trend: The Pitti Uomo style this year is deeply personal

Hockerty is always on top of the Pitti style, and this year they dig into the self expression

Accessories, Formal Wear, Tie

Every year, a trade show in Italy brings together all of the industry's most talented designers and manufacturers. It isn't a fashion week. It isn't for the people who are looking to convince the consumers what is in style or in fashion. It is for the people at the beginning of the process to come together and see (and maybe even decide together) what will define the style for the next year. Pitti Uomo is one of, if not the, biggest and most influential trade shows of the year, and this year, the message is clear: The focus is on you. I know it sounds weird, because the focus should almost always be on the consumer. These are businesses at the end of the day, so selling to them and bringing in enough profit to continue on to next year is a simple goal. However, there is something that stood out to me throughout this year that Hockerty, one of my favorite attendees of Pitti Uomo every year, nails perfectly: simplicity allows you to shine.

Tradition leads the way
