Irish winters can be harsh, and during our early years our unused barrels were left exposed to the elements in the courtyard of our distillery. Charring is an age-old method of invigorating barrels to intensify the taste. Jameson Black Barrel is a tribute to our coopers who double char our barrels to “bring the wood back to life. Our coopers would  

invigorate them by lowering a burning kindle into each cask, a process they called ‘bringing the wood back to life.’ 

Turns out every barrel contains secrets; the trick is coaxing them out.  

The secret we learned was that whiskey that’s spent time in double charred barrels carries an untold richness and complexity. 

Matured in a combination of American oak, sherry casks, and double charred bourbon barrels, Jameson Black Barrel is a traditional Irish blend of pot still and grain still whiskey  

but includes an additional ‘small batch’ grain whiskey also.  

• Tasting Notes 

Nose - Time spent maturing in these barrels leads to intensified aromas of butterscotch, fudge and creamy toffee. 

Taste -Nutty notes are in abundance alongside the smooth sweetness of spice and vanilla. 

Finish - Enjoy the richness and intensity of toasted wood and vanilla.
