Jameson Distillery Edition is a premium blended Irish whiskey that pays homage to the brand's historic roots. This specific edition is a triple-distilled blend of pot still and grain whiskeys, often featuring a higher proportion of pot still whiskey compared to the standard expression and matured in unique casks like sherry-seasoned oak. While the packaging prominently mentions the legendary Bow Street Distillery in Dublin—where the brand was founded in 1780—the actual distillation process for all Jameson products now takes place at the New Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Ireland.
The brand was originally established by John Jameson, a Scotsman who transformed the Dublin distilling scene in the late 18th century. Over the centuries, Jameson grew to become the world's most popular Irish whiskey. In 1966, the John Jameson & Son company merged with other major Irish distillers to form Irish Distillers, a move designed to preserve the heritage of Irish whiskey during a period of industrial decline. In 1988, Irish Distillers was acquired by the French global spirits giant Pernod Ricard, which remains the ultimate owner today.
