Reviving the signature style that built Jameson’s fame, Jameson Single Pot Still is a luxurious, 46% ABV expression crafted in Midleton from malted and unmalted barley, triple-distilled for velvet texture then matured in a unique Five Oak Cask regime. Complex yet effortlessly smooth, it’s a refined modern classic—equally at home as a contemplative sip or an elevated, gift-worthy statement.
Tasting Notes & Experience
A generous bloom of toasted oak, cinnamon and nutmeg opens over honeycomb, dairy fudge and vanilla. Zesty accents of baked apple and citrus brighten the palate as rich dark chocolate, spicy toffee and ginger unfold. Layers of sweet and smoked-wood tones glide into a poised, medium-long finish where delicate fruits fade and warming pot-still spice and oak linger.

Cocktail Pairings
Showcase its silken body and spice in refined builds: a Still Fashioned (subtle syrup, aromatic bitters) amplifies oak and citrus oils; an Irish Manhattan (sweet vermouth, bitters) frames dark chocolate and dried fruit; a Whiskey Sour with egg white spotlights ginger warmth and orchard brightness; highball with chilled soda and lemon zest for a crystalline, aperitivo-style serve.
Craftsmanship & Story
Jameson Single Pot Still returns to the house’s 18th-century roots: a mash of malted and unmalted barley, triple-distilled in copper for purity and plushness. Matured across five cask types, the whiskey is blended and bottled at Midleton to 46% to preserve depth and texture—an exacting, modern interpretation of the profile that once defined Dublin whiskey, now perfected in Cork.
Special Features
The Five Oak Cask architecture layers sweet vanilla and maple from American oak, spice and dried fruit from European oak, a distinctive Irish virgin oak signature, and further richness from ex-bourbon and ex-sherry. Non-chill filtering style character is preserved at 46% ABV, delivering a seamless balance of orchard fruit, baking spice, chocolate and graceful oak.
