Jameson Single Pot Still Five Oak Cask Release  £57.22

Jameson Single Pot Still Five Oak Cask Release 

Jameson Single Pot Still is a celebration of the traditional style of Irish Whiskey making after which it is named. Crafted from a mashbill of malted and unmalted barley, it is then triple-distilled for a rich, unmistakable silkiness.

This Five Oak Cask Release is matured in a combination of three different types of virgin oak (Irish, European and American) in addition to ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry Casks. The finished result is a whiskey that is equal parts complex and smooth. 

On the nose, aromas of wood-driven spices of cinnamon and nutmeg intertwined with rich toasted oak, sweet honeycomb and salted caramel. Zesty fruit notes linger in the background along with dairy fudge, butterscotch and vanilla while the pot still spices continue to build over time complementing the earthy woodland notes and ripe fruits.

On the palate, rich dark chocolate, spicy toffee and ground cinnamon with hints of freshly grated ginger and touches of orange peel. The combination of fresh and seasoned oak adds intricate and layered sweet and smoked-wood tones with delicate tannins, working in balance with the pot still’s silky texture.

A finish comprised of delicate fruits slowly fading, leaving the spices and oak to linger until the very end.
