Like most Jamesons, it is light on everything. But so smooth, sweet with a hint of maple and a solid barrel flavor. Smoke and fruit is perfectly balanced. This is underrated by the reviewers. 3/17/2015. Happy St. Patty's to all. Thought I'd start my day off smooth with his over ice. I don't recommend as it crashes out the fruit (you can see essential oils come out of solution) and leaves just smoke.
