Jameson Black Barrel

(Was €50.00/Now €39.95)

A whiskey that needs no introductions. This has quickly become a ‘go to’ whiskey. This is a blend of Pot still and grain with a combination of sherry and bourbon cask. Some of the bourbon barrel aged liquid is aged in extra charred barrels resulting in increased body and richer darker flavour. This whiskey is smooth and rich and just packed with exotic fruits, vanilla and toasted wood. A real crowd pleaser!

Green Spot

(Was €59.95/Now €55.00)

The Spot brand is synonymous with great liquid and this is one of Ireland’s most recognised non-age- statement whiskeys, a pot still aged between 7 and 9 years with 25% aged in sherry cask. To taste this whiskey is just bursting with honeyed spice and orchard fruits rounded off with toasted oak and hints of spice.

Redbreast 12 Year Old

(Was €63.00/Now €60.00)

Redbreast dates back to 1912 when it was founded by the Dublin wine merchants, Gilbeys, who used their ex-wine casks to age distillate from The Jameson Distillery in Dublin. In 1985 Gilbeys stopped bottling Redbreast and the brand ceased to exist until 1991 when Irish Distillers reintroduced it back onto the market after a revamp. Expect a complex mix of rich flavours with toffee, dried fruits and exotic spices.
