Description
Matured for 18 years in hand-selected oak casks from America and Europe, including sherry casks, this rare whiskey is then finished in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels. This rite of passage introduces subtle traces of vanilla to an exceptionally balanced, mellow whiskey. The elder statesman of the Jameson portfolio.
The nose displays aromatic oils with a touch of wood and spicy toffee. The palate is wonderfully mellow and smooth, a mouthful of complex flavours fudge, toffee, spice, hints of wood and leather, gentle sherry nuttiness and vanilla.A long, lingering finish carries the theme of the wood, spice and toffee right through to the end. Bottled at 40% abv.
