Jameson Triple Triple Marsala Edition 1l 40%

Jameson Triple Triple Marsala Edition is a new addition to the Jameson range of triple distilled Irish whiskies. This special edition gains its unique character from an innovative maturation process that combines traditional bourbon and sherry casks with exclusive Sicilian Marsala casks.

Characteristics:

Barrels of Marsala, a typical sweet wine from the island of Sicily, add extraordinary depth and complexity to the whisky. These casks are known for their rich influence on the spirits matured in them, bringing notes of vanilla, subtle apricot, walnut and forest spices to the whisky. The result is a highly smooth and harmonious flavour that is typical of Jameson, yet enriched by the sweet and aromatic hints of Marsala.

Tasting profile:

Aroma: Distinct notes of vanilla and sweet spices mingle with subtle aromas of apricots and walnuts.

Taste: Rich and balanced, with deep Marsala notes that complement the classic smoothness of Jameson.

Finish: Long and pleasing with persistent notes of wood spice and nutty nuances.

History:

The beginning of the Jameson story dates back to 1780 when John Jameson, originally from Alloa in Scotland, laid the foundations of Dublin's famous Bow Street distillery. Although this was a time before social media and the selfie, John Jameson and his family founded a business that has endured for over two centuries, creating a whiskey that is now one of the most recognised in the world.

John Jameson II took over the management of the distillery from his father in 1804 and continued his work, laying the foundations for the growth Jameson experienced during the 19th century. Under his leadership, Jameson whisky was renowned for its quality and the motto 'Live a little more and fight a little less' resonated with whisky lovers for decades.

John Jameson III and John Jameson IV, known as Jack, continued the family tradition, both holding prominent positions in Dublin's public life. Andrew Jameson, another of the family line, gained international recognition as a businessman and patron of the arts, and was appointed a senator in Ireland's first senate.

The Old Jameson Distillery reopened as a visitor centre in 1997, and underwent extensive renovations in 2007. In 2018, Jameson Distillery Bow St. was awarded "World's Best Distillery Tour" at the World Travel Awards, a testament to its enduring influence and popularity.

Jameson Triple Triple Marsala Edition is perfect for tasting on its own or as a base for sophisticated cocktails. This edition is a great choice for special occasions or as a gift for whiskey lovers who appreciate the unique blend of Irish tradition and Italian sweet wine.
