Jameson Crested, historically known as 'Crested Ten' when first released in 1963, represents a monumental milestone in Irish distilling history. For generations, distilleries sold their whiskey by the cask to independent bonders who bottled it themselves, often leading to inconsistent quality. Crested was the very first whiskey that Jameson bottled directly at their historic Bow Street Distillery in Dublin, reclaiming control over their liquid's destiny and quality. Classified under 'Other' as a premium blended Irish whiskey, it is crafted from a blend of rich single pot still and grain whiskeys, with a significant portion of the blend matured in high-quality sherry casks alongside traditional bourbon barrels. This aging process imparts a deep amber hue and a voluptuous profile defined by toasted wood, warm spices, dark chocolate, and luscious orchard fruits, celebrating the enduring legacy of Irish distilling craftsmanship.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 1780 by John Jameson in Dublin, Jameson is the world's most iconic name in Irish whiskey, celebrated for pioneering the signature triple-distillation process that yields its trademark smoothness. While its historic roots remain at the Bow Street Distillery in Dublin, modern production takes place at the state-of-the-art Midleton Distillery in County Cork, where locally sourced barley and pure Irish water are meticulously crafted. Jameson's portfolio showcases a masterful blending of rich pot still and delicate grain whiskeys, aged to perfection in seasoned sherry and bourbon oak casks. This dedication to heritage and craft is beautifully expressed in acclaimed bottlings such as the Black Barrel, Crested, and the prestigious Bow Street 18 Year Old.
