What Makes the Jameson Whiskey Unique?
Ireland’s temperate climate and unspoilt countryside has always ensured a plentiful supply of the natural ingredients vital to good whiskey – golden barley and pure water. Tradition plays a large part in whiskey-making in Ireland and some of its features are unique. Barley used for malt differs from malt in Scotland where the barley is dried using smoke which gives Scotch whisky its smoky/peaty flavour Also, unlike most of the world’s whiskeys, Irish Distillers, in line with tradition, distils its whiskeys three times. This ensures a final product which is particularly smooth and pure. Before bottling, whiskeys are “vatted” or married together to produce the Jameson whiskey which the consumer has come to know and appreciate Jameson is distilled in the Midleton Distillery in Co. Cork.
