Jameson Select Reserve Black Barrel Irish Whiskey

As part of a limited edition, limited-time release, Jameson has revealed a Select Reserve Black Barrel version of their Irish whiskey. The crafted blend utilizes malted and unmalted barley, distilled in pot stills and then aged in used sherry casks. The goods are then blended with rare, small batch grain whiskey, matured in deep-charred in ex-bourbon barrels from Wild Turkey.

The description for the Select Reserve continues,noting that the liquor sherry casks impart subtly sweet flavors of roasted almonds, which are “beautifully balanced by notes of vanilla, toasted wood and peppery spice from the bourbon barrels.” Limited stock, of course.

If any of y’all have tried it, let us know how it tastes. ($39.99 @ Grand Wine Cellar/Amazon)
