Jameson

WHISKEY JAMESONLa history of whiskey begins on October 5, 1740, birthdate of John Jameson in a family recognized with the motto "Sine Metu" (fearless) for their courage in battles at sea against pirates during the sixteenth century. The Secret of the softness of Jameson is time. It is produced with high purity water in combination with malted barley and unmalted, distilled 3 times in traditional copper pot stills and matured in oak barrels ensures its mild flavor and absolute purity. After distillation, the strength of the two types of liquor to 60-70% alcohol by volume is reduced with pure water and filled into barrels. Three different types of barrels urilizan: boots sherry, bourbon barrels and port pipes (after all, three is her lucky number), all maintained by the cooper. The barrels are stored in their huge, dark and aromatic Midleton store, where they rest and mature over the next few years. In a year, each cask loses about 2% of its volume by evaporation. This is known as "The Angels' Share". Mature whiskeys are emptied into huge vats where they can maridar before bottling. Here alcohol strength is also reduced to 40% alcohol by volume and the whiskey is ready for your enjoyment.
