Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition Blended Irish Whiskey 70 cl 40%

Jameson Caskmates was born from an unexpected meeting between a whiskey distiller and a brewmaster – the result is a whiskey with notes of cocoa, coffee and hops.

Expert Review

Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition Blended Irish Whiskey is a Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey, bottled at 40%.

In 2013, Jameson's master distiller met the brewmaster from Cork's Franciscan Well Brewery. They decided to send a few Jameson casks to the brewery to see how they might influence their handcrafted Irish stout. Once the beer had been tapped, the casks were sent back to the Jameson distillery with their new stout character, and the whiskey was filled in once more. Jameson Caskmates retains the softness of the triple-distilled Jameson Original, but adds notes of cocoa, coffee, cream caramel and a gentle touch of hops.
