Jameson, 18 y.o.

This is an 18 year old whiskey, the kind of thing you only pull out for best mates. And if you want to impress them just throw this line into conversation: “It’s a unique blend of three signature distillates matured in the finest oak for almost two decades and is given a final marrying period of at least 6 months in a fresh American oak barrel, adding a unique complexity and elegance’. Ok, that is a mouthful. Just let the bottle do the talking.

Nose: Aromatic oils with a touch of wood and spicy toffee.

Palate: Wonderfully mellow and smooth, a mouthful of complex flavours –toffee, spice, hints of wood and leather, gentle sherry nuttiness and vanilla.

Finish: A long lingering finish carries the theme of the wood, spice and toffee right through to the end.
