About this deal

The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein. Produced at the Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Jameson Triple Triple is triple-distilled and blended from a combination of ex-Bourbon and Sherry casks, along with casks that have been seasoned with fortified wine from Malaga in Spain. Jameson is currently owned by Irish Distillers Pernod Ricard and is produced at the Midleton distillery in Co. Cork. This was built in 1975 to replace the old Bow Street distillery in Dublin, which is now home to the brand's visitor centre and was built by founder John Jameson in 1780. Midleton makes both single grain and single pot still whiskeys with a combined capacity of 64 million litres per year. This goes towards Jameson, which is the best selling Irish whiskey in the world, and other Irish Distillers brands such as Green Spot, Paddy and Redbreast.

For this ranking, I’m looking at the classics side-by-side with the newbies that have popped up this year and last to replace a few expressions that have been retired. It should be noted that I’m leaving off distillery-only releases and one-offs that aren’t in the core lineup. Overall, the actual ranking is simple. I’m going on taste alone to give you the best chance to find and drink the best whiskey from the beloved Irish shingle. Apple orchards and bails of hay mingle with almonds, spice, chocolate, and a hint of lemon oil on the nose. Dark chocolate and a note of woody spices mingle on the palate with creamed honey and a whisper of espresso cream. The end brings about a note of butterscotch next to a milkier chocolate smoothness that leads to a finish that’s part of spiced wood and part bitter espresso bean, creating a spiced-mocha-latte-spiked-with-whiskey vibe. Today, I’m ranking all the current core expressions from Jameson. As with any whiskey brand, the core line is almost constantly in flux, with new expressions dropping throughout the year(s) to bolster the perennials. Jameson is always trying new things with its line and right now is a great time to dive in. Especially for fans of unique barreling programs. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. Each time Jameson whiskey is distilled it becomes stronger in character, adding more sweet, fruity flavours and a smoother taste than other types of whiskey. Is Jameson a sipping whiskey?The whiskey is available in global travel retail from this month (July), priced at €32 per 1L bottle. Aging stout in whiskey barrels has a long tradition in brewing. Plus, a pint of stout goes hand-in-hand with drams of Irish whiskey. So aging Jameson in whiskey barrels that held stout beer makes a lot of sense. In this case, the aged juice spends an extra six months in the stout barrels, giving the whiskey that little somethin’, before proofing and bottling.

That bitter char comes through on the nose with a subtle espresso bean oiliness next to almost burnt buttery toffee and a touch of walnut. The palate builds on that nuttiness to the point of a walnut cake full of Karo syrup, plenty of dark holiday spices, and a touch of vanilla pudding. The end really amps that vanilla up to the point that you’re almost chewing on vanilla tobacco while the wood comes in with a dry cigar box vibe next to ground winter spices, more nuttiness, and a hint of dry straw in an old fruit orchard.Jameson Triple Triple is being released (right about now) across global travel retail. The expression is bottled at 40% ABV and comes in a litre bottle with an RRP of €32. Jameson Triple Triple rather surprised me with its genuinely different take on an industry stalwart bottling. The Malaga wine cask has added some real berry sweetness to the underlying pot still and grain whiskey composition resulting in an expression which feels transformed enough to merit its own bottling. This said, whilst the flavour profile has been changed up, the quality level is, as you might expect, very similar to the standard Jameson’s expression. Sure it’s ‘smooth’ (one could equally say underpowered), but it’s also uneven and at times uneasily youthful (particularly the grain component). The name ‘Triple Triple’ refers to both the triple cask maturation and Jameson’s status as a triple-distilled Irish whiskey. This whiskey boasts a bold 40% ABV while also retaining Jameson’s signature smoothness. What can you mix with Jameson Triple Triple? Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise.

Pared with a glass of Malaga wine, you can clearly distinguish the influence of sweetness and dark fruits notes the wine cask has brought to the whisky.This is a pleasant and easily drinkable dram that could give a good start to a relaxing evening or maybe give an interesting twist to an Irish coffee. We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then. Any new functionalities, tools and features shall be part of and governed by the Terms from the moment they are launched and/or available. Further, we reserve the right to modify, change, discontinue the Service, add or remove features, update the Service, change its appearance, temporarily and permanently, at any time, in whole or any part thereof. If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. This opens with soft bourbon vanilla, dry cedar bark, orange oils, rich toffee, and subtle winter spices on the nose. The taste delivers on those promises and adds in worn boot leather, hazelnuts, and a dusting of dark chocolate that melds into the hazelnut to create a creamy Nutella when you add a drop of water. The end arrives with a rush of spiced plum jam with cloves, allspice, and a hint of licorice next to more of that dry cedar next to a nutty/chocolate-infused tobacco leaf with a slight chew to it.

Master blender Billy Leighton describes the whiskey as having “initial fruit notes of sweet pear” on the nose, along with hints of cinnamon and clove. Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us.

Here, Jameson has combined their classic triple-distilled Irish whiskey with cold brew coffee. The idea behind the expression is to help enhance the Irish Coffee experience. In this case, it’s a bit reversed. Instead of getting a small dose of Irish whiskey in a creamy coffee, you get a small dose of bitter cold brew in your whiskey.

This whiskey takes the classic triple distilled Irish whiskey and triple casks it before bottling. In this case, the usual ex-sherry and ex-bourbon casks are supported by Malaga casks (a Spanish fortified wine). Those barrels are vatted and proofed all the down to 80 before bottling.

Whiskybase B.V. is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under no. 52072819. But, let’s remember – this isn’t a bottling that’s been designed for hard-core malt enthusiasts. It’s an expression designed to offer the everyday Jameson’s drinker something a little bit different. And in that regard I find it particularly successful - at €32 for a litre I can’t see anyone complaining too vociferously. Jameson Triple Triple and Jameson original Irish whiskey have a similar triple distillation process, but Jameson Triple Triple is a triple threat. By blending the suave sophistication of bourbon and sherry casks with the bold flavours of Málaga casks, we’ve created a spirit that’s simply unparalleled. What does Jameson Triple Triple taste like?
