Description
Jameson is a triple-distilled blended Irish whiskey, combining pot still and grain whiskies, made from malted and un-malted barley. The Jameson brand uses locally sourced barley from Southern Ireland, working with over 200 farmers with barley plots ranging from 15 to 700 acres, within 50 miles of the Midleton distillery. This barley is combined with water drawn from the Dungourney River, which flows through the grounds of the Midleton distillery. The Jameson blend is distilled in copper pot stills three times to give the whiskey the brand’s signature smoothness. Each time the whiskey is distilled it becomes stronger in character, adding sweeter fruity, flavors and a smoother taste than other types of whiskey. Finally, Jameson original whiskey is aged in predominantly ex-bourbon oak casks for at least 4 years.
