This bottling of an 18-year-old Jameson Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey was produced as a distillery-release; the whisky was matured in ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks and finished in first-fill ex-bourbon casks.
Jameson was a distillery in Dublin, Ireland, which was founded in 1780 by John Jameson and was in use until 1971. Following a merger of Irish distilleries in 1966 and the construction of a large modern plant in Midleton, Jameson is also produced there. Today, Jameson belongs to the French Pernod Ricard Group.
Ireland has long played a leading role in the world as a whiskey producer. Not only was whiskey (or whiskey-like) distilled very early (from the 14th century onwards), but the sheer number of distilleries that developed over time (by 1800 there were already over 2000 distilleries) is remarkable.
