Jameson Triple Triple / 40% / 1.0l
- At Jameson, we’ve known that good things come in threes ever since John Jameson set up his distillery on Bow Street in Dublin and introduced the world to triple-distilled Jameson Irish Whiskey” said Billy Leighton, master blender at Midleton Distillery.
Product description
Misfortunes may come in pairs, but good things come in threes – at least that is the view of the employees of the Midleton Distillery, producer of Jameson whiskey.
The Triple Triple version presented here confirms it 200%. The first of the two "triples" refers of course to the triple-distilled single grain and single pot still components from which Jameson is composed, while the second refers to the three types of barrels used in the maturation process. In addition to traditional bourbon and sherry barrels, barrels seasoned with Malaga were also used here. Jameson has been an unrivaled leader in the Irish whiskey sector for years, with annual sales of 8 million cases (2019).
Aroma : fruity, apricots, pineapples, plums, mango, vanilla, brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves and a pinch of ginger.
Palate : soft, nectarines, oranges, raisins, Christmas gingerbread, caramel, vanilla, dark chocolate, cloves, black pepper and a trace of licorice.
Finish : quite long, with notes of cinnamon, cloves, pepper, nut nougat, orange peel and plums.
