This super allocated Irish Whiskey has finally come back into stock. Get your orders in now, or you will not get any!!! This is the second of the two new highly allocated products from Jameson for 2008. The new Rarest Vintage Reserve is a blend, like the other Jameson whiskeys, consisting of older grain whiskeys in addition to pure pot still whiskey (containing both malted and unmalted barley), some of which was aged entirely in ruby port casks (with the rest matured in second fill bourbon casks). They told me today that the grain whiskey is 23-24 years old, with the pot still component being slightly younger. The whiskey is bottled at 46% and is not chill-filtered! The whiskey is the deepest, richest, and most lush of the Jameson family, and nicely layered. In short, it’s a great whiskey! Such luxury isn’t without a cost, though. I’m told that the whiskey will run approximately 10x that of the standard Jameson. And it really is a Vintage Reserve: the bottle is vintage-dated, and each vintage will be a limited edition, unique expression of Jameson. It contains the oldest and rarest whiskies stored at Irish Distillers' facility near Cork. Only 13,000 9-litre cases of Jameson Rarest Vintage Reserve were produced.
