Jameson Black Barrel Blended Irish Whiskey, 0.7l, alc. 40% by volume

In 1966, John Power & Son, John Jameson & Son and the Cork Distilleries Company (which operated Old Midleton Distillery) combined to form the Irish Distillers Group. Subsequently, it was decided to close the existing distilleries and to bundle the entire production in a new, very modern facility. This was built in Midleton. In 1975 production ended at the Old Jameson Distillery and began at the new one. The old distillery has now been converted into a visitor centre.

Jameson Black Barrel matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks and freshly burned casks for an undefined period of time. Bottled at a mild 40% ABV. Alcohol.

Aroma: Slightly chocolaty with burnt wood, hearty grain and a pleasant sweetness.

Taste: Slightly peppery, mildly sweet with caramel, hints of fruit, chocolaty oak.
