Description

Irish winters can be harsh, and during our early years our unused barrels were left exposed to the elements in the courtyard of our distillery. Our coopers would invigorate them with by lowering a burning kindle into each cask, a process they called ‘bringing the wood back to life’ Turns out every barrel contains secrets; the trick is coaxing them out. The secret we learnt was that whiskey that’s spent time in double charred barrels carries an untold richness and complexity. Matured in a combination of American oak, sherry casks, and double charred bourbon barrels, Jameson Black Barrel is a traditional Irish blend of pot still and grain still whiskey but includes an additional ‘small batch’ grain whiskey also.

Tasting Notes

Bursting with rich, complex flavours of fruit, caramel, toasted wood, warm spice, and vanilla sweetness, the double charring delivers an embellished finish to our triple distilled smoothness.
