Product description
Jameson is the undisputed leader in Irish whiskey sales, with over 5.3 million cases annually, which translates into approximately 2/3 of the entire segment.
Not everyone remembers today that the Jameson brand debuted in 1963, previously the local whiskey was introduced to the market through brokers, usually as "Dublin Whiskey". Jameson Crested celebrates this date, as we read in a press release "the moment when our first whiskey was bottled and labeled at our Dublin headquarters on Bow Street". Jameson Crested debuted in March 2016, a blended whiskey made from its own grain and pot still distillates, a large part of the latter of which was aged in sherry casks.
