About Jameson Black Barrel Irish Whiskey
Jameson Black Barrel is a blend of pot still and grain whiskey delivering that signature Jameson smoothness. In addition to this pot still and grain whiskey component however, Jameson Black Barrel also contains a small batch of grain whiskey made from a mash of malted and unmalted barley distilled in a column still producing a lighter, sweeter spirit. The blend is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex sherry casks with an aliquot of that spirit matured in American oak barrels which have undergone an additional intense char. This results in a whiskey with even richer flavors of spice, nutty notes and vanilla sweetness, while the sherry casks add sherry fruit flavors. The added time in deeply charred barrels give this whiskey an intensely long finish.
Jameson Black Barrel’s bottle may have changed but the liquid inside has stayed the same, delivering spice, nutty notes, vanilla sweetness and sherry fruit flavors with an intensely bold finish.
This whiskey earned a score of 94 points from the Beverage Testing Institute and Wine Enthusiast.

About Jameson
You’d be hard-pressed to find a more iconic name in the Irish whiskey world than “Jameson”. The Jameson tradition dates all the way back to 1740, when John Jameson was born into a family whose motto, “Sine Metu”(“Without Fear”), was earned through the family’s courage in fighting pirates on the high seas during the 1500s.
John Jameson himself was a living embodiment of Sine Metu, and his ancestors’ bravery inspired in John a boldness that led him not only to open his own distillery in the latter 18th century but also to pioneer the technique of triple-distilling whiskey — now the gold standard in the Irish whiskey industry. John Jameson lived to be 83 — an impressive feat for someone born in the 18th century — and his descendants John II, John III, and John IV all honored his legacy by leading the distillery well into the 20th century.

About Irish Whiskey
Contrary to popular belief that Scots invented whisk(e)y, Irish whiskey was mentioned almost a century before its Scottish brother.
Its origin comes from the perfume distilling monks who decided to tweak the recipe a bit, creating Irish whiskey.
Irish whiskey doesn’t have a lot of rules and regulations to be considered “pure” and can be made with various grains and processes, as long as it is aged for at least three years in wooden casks and has a max ABV of 94.8%.
