Also, jack isn't considered bourbon because they don't use NEW charred oak barrels.
The reason Jack is considered Tennessee Whiskey and not bourbon is because they use the lincoln county method of filtering it through charred maple. it has nothing to do with the barrel

filtering it through charred maple
All Bourbons are a Whiskey, but not every Whiskey is Bourbon.
