Jameson 18 Year Old Bow Street
Jameson · Midleton Distillery
The Bow Street 18 represents the pinnacle of the Jameson range, finished in first-fill bourbon barrels at the old Bow Street location in Dublin. Eighteen years have stripped away any rough edges while amplifying the pot still character that defines great Irish whiskey. A contemplative pour that earns every year of its age.
Nose
Generous honey and vanilla open the nose, followed by layers of dried apricot, toasted almond, and a gentle floral rosewater note. A touch of pot still spice adds definition.
Palate
Silky and full. Toffee and cocoa arrive first, then a wave of peach and malt, laced with a clove warmth that builds slowly. The blend of grain and pot still whiskeys creates remarkable textural range.
Finish
Long and composed, with lingering woody spice, caramel, and a final ethereal sweetness.
