Blended Irish Whiskey40%

Jameson Black Barrel is a special blend of Jameson Irish Whiskey, matured in double charred first-fill bourbon casks (black barrels). The result is a smoother, richer whiskey with a complex taste. Jameson Black Barrel is perfect for sipping neat or on the rocks. Jameson Black Barrel is a super release from Jameson, with a high proportion of Irish pot still whiskey as well as small-batch grain. The result is an increased body and level of richness when compared to the core expression. Well worth a look...

Customer Rating

“Came across this whilst travelling around the west coast of Ireland. Loved it so much, I ordered two bottles as soon as I come home from MOM. This is the first Irish I reach for now, which is bold considering I have a Redbreast 12, a Redbreast 15, a West Cork, an a Greenspot. This is great value for money.....”

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Rich and fruity with notes of tropical fruits, coconut, nectarines in yoghurt, guava and a thick core of sweet cereals.

Palate

Thick and full on the palate, with an intense, unctuous creaminess, alongside dates, walnuts and peels. Good peach and coconut notes, and a little cinnamon.

Finish

Long finish, and very fruity with notes of cinnamon and nutmeg and hints of potpourri.

Black Beauty - NOT!

This is more Rum than whiskey, far too sweet for it's own good, clearly catering to foreign markets and young palates. A poor mixer too.

Fantastic value and solid dram

This is my go to budget Irish whiskey. $35 in my market. Better than standard Jameson and better than Bushmills white label. Not as flavorful and older Irish bottlings or more sophisticated finishes or multiple cask whiskies that add complexity, but solid and a great gift bottle for bourbon drinkers and scotch drinkers if you want to give a bottle of Irish that won't break the bank.

Tasting Irish whiskeys

I tried teeling small batch, jameson ipa, jameson black barrel, bushmills black bush, bushmills 10, jameson stout, back to back in the same night. I am surprized by bad comments. I am not expert, but clearly this is the tastiest one which matters most. Bushmills 10 is the smoothest. I also liked stout and black bush a lot.

Dull but cheap and decent

Well take the positive first its dead cheap and decent. My palate finds this drink a little dull, but im obviously in minority here.

Smooth with subtle oak and sweet caramel notes

I'm a died in the wool Jamesons drinker. Mix it with nothing a drink it neat in chilled glasses. I keep my whiskey in the fridge at 40°F. My go to is Black Barrel. What a smooth tasting Irish Whiskey with subtle oak and sweet caramel notes. When I sit down in the evening it caps off my day. When having drinks with friends and or family it just fits like a favorite old jacket that make me comfortable. I Suggest it to anyone that loves their whiskey and have happily converted bourbon drinkers.
