The story behind it

The maker

Jameson was founded by John Jameson in 1780 in Dublin with the vision of creating the highest quality Irish whiskey. Today, the legendary brand is distilled at the expansive Midleton Distillery in County Cork, maintaining its commitment to triple distillation and exceptional smoothness.

How it is made

Crafted at the Midleton Distillery, this expression is uniquely aged in a combination of double-charred first-fill bourbon casks and sherry butts. This painstaking process of re-charring the barrels elevates the signature Irish pot still spice and sweetness.
