People familiar with Lynchburg consider Lynne Tolley one of the luckiest people in town. Not only is Tolley a renowned culinary expert and cookbook author who travels the globe as a Jack Daniel's brand ambassador, she's also a member of the Master Taster Panel at her great-great uncle's distillery -- the Jack Daniel Distillery.
Every Friday, Tolley joins a group of up to 25 Distillery employees for the weekly taste testing of the newest matured batches of Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey and Gentleman Jack. Every two months, Tolley joins a smaller group to sample Jack Daniel's Single Barrel to ensure the aroma and taste of the selected barrels meets the standards of the Single Barrel flavor profile of a mature, dark amber, single barrel whiskey.
Tolley noted that not only is a master taster an unpaid position, the tasters are not even allowed to swallow the whiskey. However, there are plenty of perks for being a master taster, one of which is receiving the official taste-tester duck decoy plaque.
