Tasting Notes
"The stout has had quite an effect on the humble Jameson we all know. Significantly darker in color and showing attention grabbing aromas of milk chocolate, malt, and a hint of fragrant hops. The mouthfeel is significantly richer and heavier than the base spirit, but the finish is brief and somewhat dry and lighter than expected with a slight note of black pepper. This whiskey is an exciting, confusing, and fun experiment. "
