Jameson Irish Whiskey has been crafted with dedication and expertise since 1780, embodying a legacy built on a commitment to quality and tradition. The whiskey’s renowned smoothness is achieved through a signature triple distillation process, a method that remains central to its character under the careful oversight of Head Distiller Kevin O’Gorman. Locally sourced Irish barley and pure water from the Dungourney River form the foundation of Jameson’s distinctive blend, while non-GMO maize is sourced from the south of France to complement the recipe. The aging process takes place in oak casks seasoned by time spent maturing bourbon and fortified wine, lending the whiskey its signature notes of toasted wood, vanilla, and subtle sherry sweetness. By adhering to the strict standards that define Irish whiskey, each drop spends a minimum of three years maturing on the island, with a portion lost each year to the Angel’s Share. Operating from a single distillery, Jameson maintains full control over every stage of production, ensuring a consistent and distinctive character that reflects the care and expertise of those who craft it.
