jameson triple distilled original irish whiskey is the world's favorite irish whiskey. unlike american whiskey which is distilled once or scottish whiskey which is distilled twice, jamesons whiskey is distilled three times to give it the smoothness that it deserves. it is a perfectly balanced whiskey with the malted barley and un-malted barley being measured to perfection so one doesn’t overpower the other. they also balance the pot still whiskeys to perfectly complement the delicate grain whiskey that they use. finally, they balance the flavor of the whiskey, this is perfected by the casks used during maturing. they balance the nutty flavors from the sherry with the fragrant vanilla flavors from the bourbon casks used, all resulting in the perfect balance for a whiskey.
