✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Created by Jameson's fifth-generation Head Cooper, Ger Buckley, The Cooper's Croze is a celebratory Irish whiskey from the Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Ireland, designed to showcase the profound impact of wood on spirit. Named after the croze—the specialized tool used to cut the groove for the cask head—this expression is a masterfully crafted blend of single pot still and single grain whiskeys. It is aged in a trio of cask types: virgin American oak, seasoned traditional bourbon barrels, and rich Sherry butts. This combination imparts a complex character rich with vanilla sweetness, toasted wood, ripe orchard fruits, and warm Spanish spices, reflecting centuries of coopering heritage and Irish distilling tradition.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Historien om Jameson går tilbage til 1780, hvor John Jameson overtog Bow Street Distillery i Dublin. I dag er Jameson verdens mest ikoniske producent af irsk whiskey, og den moderne produktion foregår på det historiske Midleton Distillery i County Cork. Mærket ejes af Irish Distillers, et datterselskab under Pernod Ricard, og holder urokkeligt fast i sin karakteristiske tredobbelte destillation, som giver en enestående blød og imødekommende spiritus. Huset blender fyldig og krydret single pot still-whiskey med elegant grain-whiskey, hvorefter blandingen modner på udvalgte bourbon- og sherryfade for at opnå en harmonisk balance. Jameson er verdenskendt for sin klassiske blended Irish whiskey såvel som nyskabende varianter som Jameson Black Barrel, Caskmates-serien med finish på craftbeer-fade samt eksklusive, lagrede aftapninger som den anmelderroste 18-Year-Old.
