Twice-Charred Whiskeys

Jameson Black Barrel Irish Whiskey Boasts a Rich Flavor and Smooth Texture

— July 27, 2017 — Marketing
Jameson Black Barrel is a newly released rendition on the classic Irish whiskey.

Jameson Black Barrel is a triple-distilled blend of pot still grain whiskey that is matured in a mixture of sherry casks and bourbon barrels. This product is unique in that the bourbon barrels are twice-charred. This is a process that can be quite time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it has an incredible flavor pay-off. The finished product has the signature smoothness of Jameson with an enhanced spice, nuttiness and intensified notes of vanilla. This makes the whiskey great in cocktails or smooth as a sipper.

Jameson Black Barrel is packaged in a black tear-away paper bag as an homage to the additional charring process. This product is a great addition to the already strong Jameson portfolio.
