JACK DANIELS TESTING A NEW CINNAMON FLAVOUR

I always love to keep myself abreast with what's happening around the world. So in my usual trip around the  the net, I found out that Jack Daniels is rolling out a test version of Jack Daniels Cinnamon. It is also called the Tennessee 'FIRE'. There has been a craze for whiskey all over the world and even in Nairobi.
The proof version will launch on a limited edition in three states Oregon, Pennsylvania and Tennessee. The company however did not specify how long this test run will last. I guess it is up to the public to decide whether they like it.
 I loved the ginger in whiskey and vodka and cinnamon would be great too. Cinnamon on the other hand is a flavor obtained from the inner bark of trees  from a certain genus.
The Jack Daniels FIRE is made of a red hot cinnamon liqueur+ old No 7 Jack Daniels. As seen from the poster, it will be 35% ABV (Alcohol By Volume).
