Jameson 18 Year Old Triple Distilled Irish Whisky with Wooden Giftbox, 70cl

Product Information

Take some Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, distilled at Midleton, put it into some ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. Take some Single Grain Irish Whiskey, also distilled at Midleton, and put it into some ex-Bourbon casks. Then, after letting them age for a minimum of 18 years, blend them together and finish them in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks. The end result of that effort is the Jameson 18 Year Old Limited Reserve. Jameson 18 Years is a premium Irish whiskey that is aged for at least 18 years in a combination of American and Spanish oak barrels. It is a blend of three signature distillates, including pot still whiskey and grain whiskey. How is Jameson 18 Years made? You are responsible for all activities through your account.

Plenty of sweet notes (sherry and dark sweets), earthy notes (roasted and copper) and fruity notes (orchard and banana) to keep things even and interesting. But I wish there was something more to it… I wish it was a bit more substantive.

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. Second, a quintessential style of Irish whiskey is single pot still whiskey, which is made from a combination of malted and unmated barley (30% of each, at least) and produced in pot stills at a single distillery. That being said, a blended Irish whiskey could be blends of malt and grain whiskeys (just like blended Scotch whisky), or blends of single pot still and grain whiskeys, or blends of malt and single pot still whiskeys… Well, the combination is too complex for even multiple tweets.

Jameson 18 Year Old Bow Street Cask Strength 2019 – Review

Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. The alcohol content of Jameson 18 Years is 46% ABV. This is the same alcohol content as most other Irish whiskeys. What is the best way to drink Jameson 18 Years? No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service. There's a wide variety for whisky lovers to choose from, including the Jameson stout edition from their popular Caskmates range. Born out of a collaboration between the whiskey giant and a local Cork brewery, this special edition is aged in stout-seasoned oak barrels for a truly unique taste. A similar partnership was formed with the Franciscan Well Brewery to produce their hoppy Jameson IPA. So, when Malt asked if I would like to do a bit of writing, I was ecstatic! This is the parallel universe where people who are aggressively passionate about whisky meet. You might be judged for drinking whisky with soda, but no one will raise their eyebrows if you publicly declare your love for whisky. So here I am, with my first review on Malt. Let’s start strong (pun intended) with a cask strength whiskey from Ireland.

If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. These differences are not carved in stone; the Irish Whiskey Act of 1980 outlines only the broad parameters necessary to label a product “Irish” whiskey. Basically, it requires that whiskey be composed of grains (such as barley, wheat, corn, and rye), be distilled to no more than 94.8 percent alcohol, and be aged at least three years in wooden barrels. These guidelines leave producers a lot of leeway to define their styles.

Jameson 18 Year Old Limited Reserve is a good whiskey. It feels a bit like something is missing, but there’s nothing to truly dislike about it; enjoyable from start to finish. The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein. The blend is bottled at cask strength without the use of chill-filtration. The proof varies depending on the year of release. The 2018 batch (also the first release) was bottled at 55.3% ABV; the 2019 batch came to us 55.1% ABV. What disappoints me a little, though, is that there is no information about coloring (according to the Irish Whiskey Technical File, Point 4.1.5.2, E150a can be used in Irish whiskeys for coloring purposes prior to bottling). If Jameson is marketing it as a premium whiskey, I expect the label to contain, what I call, the basic three: age statement, use of filtration, and use of coloring. That’s the bare minimum.

Make It Memorable

Made the John Jameson way since 1780, the quintessential Jameson Irish whiskey is still produced at the Jameson distillery in Middleton, County Cork. This produces the brand’s signature smoothness and that is loved around the world.

Bottled at 40% and chill filtered this was second only to the Midleton Very Rare until recently when the cask strength 18 showed up. Now, it feels like the once grand whiskey has dropped a peg. And with the Bow Street being a now, yearly release, it does make me wonder… why even keep this one around? I’m probably not the only one wondering this, but while it’s here, we’ll give it a sniff and a taste in the Irish Whiskey review below.

Winner of 6 spirit awards

In the mouth: A liquid dessert! It has a creamy, oily mouthfeel. That chocolate note carries on to the palate. Caramel, hazelnut chocolate, citrus, macadamia-like milky nuttiness, and dark fruits. I can taste the wood influence – a bit of oakiness and leather – but they are well-integrated. A beautiful long finish, with lingering spiciness accompanied by sweetness. There’s a tad of bitterness near the very end. Overall, it’s full-bodied and well balanced. Conclusions: We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then.

Further, we reserve the right to modify, change, discontinue the Service, add or remove features, update the Service, change its appearance, temporarily and permanently, at any time, in whole or any part thereof. Jameson 18 Years is made using a traditional Irish whiskey-making process. The three signature distillates are first aged separately in American and Spanish oak barrels for at least 18 years. The distillates are then married together in a fresh American oak barrel for at least 6 months. This final marrying period adds a unique complexity and elegance to the whiskey.
