Jameson Crested Ten Irish Whisky [700ML]

Description

What makes a whiskey worthy of bearing a family crest, and why has this particular expression maintained cult status in Ireland for over six decades?

Jameson Crested Ten represents a pivotal moment in Irish whiskey history – the first official distillery bottling from Dublin’s legendary Bow Street Distillery in 1963. This premium blended Irish whiskey distinguishes itself through a higher percentage of pot still whiskey and enhanced sherry cask influence compared to standard Jameson expressions. While exploring exceptional Irish whiskeys, consider comparing this to The Irishman 12 Years Single Malt for a different perspective on Irish craftsmanship.
