Product Information

Thirty-One Whiskey is a blog devoted to the appreciation of good whiskey, fine cigars, and the value of a hard day’s work in the wood shop. The Orange You Glad You Came? is sweet, fruity, and herby. It starts with making an orange cordial from orange juice, orange zest, and sugar. You’ll then combine the orange cordial, the Jameson Stout Edition, lemon juice, and soda water over ice in a highball glass. We've been distilling Jameson since 1780 but we're always open to new ideas. So, when a local craft brewer borrowed our casks to age their fine Irish stout, it gave us an idea; why not finish our own Jameson in the stout-seasoned oak barrels? The trademark smoothness of Jameson Original, with additional rich flavours of coffee and cocoa from the beer cask finish.

A swapping of whiskey and beer barrels soon after, resulted in Jameson Stout Edition - triple-distilled, blended Irish Whiskey that has been patiently finished in Irish craft beer-seasoned barrels.

It is often asked how Irish whiskey differs from bourbon? Outside of the obvious, which is that it is not made in the United States, Irish whiskey has several differences. To be deemed Irish whiskey, the distillation and aging of the whiskey must occur in either the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland. Irish whiskey must be distilled using a yeast-fermented mash of cereal grains and can be no higher than 94.8% alcohol by volume. Irish whiskey must be aged for a minimum of three years in wooden casks no larger than 700 liters (185 US gallons). Labeling must clearly state that the whiskey is blended, if done so for bottling ( Source: Angels Envy). When a local craft brewer borrowed our casks to age their fine Irish stout it gave us an idea: why not finish our own precious whiskey in the stout beer seasoned oak barrels? The result is Jameson Stout Edition Mike: This pour is very light and crisp in the mouth.This has a very delicate and refreshing taste with a wine like quality for me. Bitter chocolate and butterscotch linger on the palate with just a nip of coffee essence. Finish In 1786, Jameson would be invited to move to Dublin, Ireland and manage the operation of Stein’s Distillery, as a favor to the Haig family. He would later go on to manage the distillery for 19 years before taking ownership of the operation in 1805. John Jameson and his son, John Jameson II, would lead the successful business into a new era in 1810 by renaming it the John Jameson and Son Distillery. Well-trod quibble aside, this is indeed a good whiskey. It’s fun to drink and carries a compliment of unique and interesting flavors layered on top of the typical Jameson fare. It’s a dark breath of fresh air in a category that’s seen relatively little innovation and I can’t wait for the next release in this series!

Christian: I love stout beers, they are my go to in all seasons that are not summer. As such, I was really excited to try this one when I first saw it on the shelf. Jameson Stout Edition would also be my first introduction into Irish Whiskey. Damn, did I like it! Reminds me of a decadent dessert in a glass. Caramel syrup, honey, chocolate syrup, and coffee. Great flavor combinations that brought happy memories of ice cream sundaes minus the ice cream. Personally, I felt like adding water to this pour took away from its profile and would much rather enjoy it neat. It is so smooth and approachable without a cube or added water. Bottom line: I would buy this again and again for my home bar. Excellent neat pour and fun to share and experience with good friends. Finish: Again familiar, but different, that different complexion of spice with chocolate from the nose lingers briefly.

In this case, the stout beer flavors remained strong and present despite the addition of a bit of ice and water. They still make themselves easily known, but there’s a little more of a bite on that dark chocolate flavor than before. It could use a bit of sweetening up if I’m honest. Palate: Orchard fruits, great mouthfeel but the vanilla cream is less prominent, it's more fragrant (hoppy?) and floral on the palate with a touch of bitterness. Christian: A nosing of this whiskey in the bottle has a pronounced aroma of stout beer. Once in the Glencairn glass, the whiskey really becomes sweet, aromatic, and buttery. Heavy caramel syrup and clove honey are present. A deeper inhale brings on chocolate syrup and light vanilla extract. Water tones down the notes of chocolate and bring forward more caramel syrup and butterscotch. The Bean and Barley from The Gastronom Blog is simple as it uses a coffee stout and simple syrup for a sweet base that gets “cut” by some citrus with freshly squeezed lemon juice and a couple of dashes of Angostura bitters. Now, though there are not many recipes that are specifically using Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition, the whiskies in all of these recipes can be switched out for the Stout Edition for even further depth of flavor.

The original Bow Street distillery was renovated in 2016 and now serves as a tourist attraction designed to increase interest in Irish whiskey tastings. Product Jameson Caskmates Stout Finish has blown me away. I can’t believe how much the addition of the stout casks have enhanced and enriched the typical Jameson Irish Whiskey. I know it’s a common theme from me this month to talk about non-chill filtering and higher proof, but I can’t help thinking this would go from a good whiskey to an excellent whiskey if it was at least 92 proof and non-chill filtered – I truly think it would soar.The standard Jameson whiskey starts with a blend of malted and un-malted Irish barley that is sourced from within fifty miles of the distillery. The grains are dried using natural gas kilns (unlike the peat fired kilns used in Scotland), fermented, and then distilled three times in batches within their small pot stills. Regular Jameson is a perfectly serviceable whiskey. Being an Irish whisky, it’s made with a combination of malted and un-malted barley. This yields, generally, a lighter whisky with flavors of citrus, vanilla, caramel, sweet grass, even some baking chocolate. A stout beer tends to often have a similar flavor profile, albeit on the darker end of the spectrum, showing things like a coffee bean, licorice, dark chocolate, and more.
