Jameson's Irish Whiskey
I bought this 12 Year Old Blended whiskey on Monday.
I sampled it on Monday evening and again on Tuesday. Both times I had it with a splash of water, then with 1 ice cube and then straight up. The color was a very nice dark gold, edging into a light amber, as opposed to the pale gold of the Bushmill's Black. Probably the result of the extra aging. To the nose and on first taste, I found this whiskey to be very layered and complex, almost bourbon like. It was a warm, brown sugar/caramel/vanilla aroma and taste, with notes of cinammon. The finish revealed it's true Irish whiskey character, the malt (grain) and wood notes shining through. As much as I like the Bushmill's, this blended whiskey will also have a place in my cabinet. Sláinte!
