Jameson Black Barrel

Sweeter, smokier, and more rounded than typical Jameson. The flavor is mild with a bit too much smoke, but there is a nalluring sense of cream present. It's reasonably good, but quite mild and too smokey. The fruit is a bit nondescript, though some orange marmalade stands out when you take a big sip, as does a bit of grain. It's smooth, but with such weak flavor, what would one expect? The custardy finish is a lot of fun and at this price range I'd be prepared to sip it for that gimmick. I just wish there were more flavor here and the smoke and alcohol were less pronounced. Definitely better than regular Jameson and not bad overall. Tastes very bourbony. There's a big hit of smoke and barrel spice up front and it's followed by some pretty mild flavors. It's got spices with a slight hint of tart cherry, raisin sweetness, and a lot of vanilla. It's tasty, but a bit on the weak and young side. The rye alcohol is a bit more present than I would like, but the caramel sweetness quickly jumps in to mask it. The mildness is reminiscent of Swift (regular), as is the bourbony character. Compare with Compass Box Spice Tree and Glenfiddich 14 bourbon barrel. If it had more to it, this would be a great whiskey.

Good shit. Better than normal jamo

For the price this is one delicious whisky not very complex but tasty 😋 sweet caramel with just a hint of smoke

Smooth, fruit like flavour (citrus) with smoke on the nose and palate but not too overwhelming, good aftertaste.
