Tullamore Dew Phoenix Limited Edition & Jameson Crested 2 x 70cl

Tullamore Dew

In 1785, Tullamore witnessed a devastating hot-air balloon accident. The resulting blaze nearly destroyed the town but immeasurably strengthened her people. Since that day, they placed a phoenix in the town’s coat of arms. Driven by their positive spirit, the town’s renaissance in the ensuing decades saw the establishment of the Tullamore distillery in 1829.

This limited edition release blends golden grain, malt and pure pot still whiskies.

Cask Type: Finished in Oloroso Sherry Casks

55% ABV / 70cl

Bottle Number: 16/25266

Jameson Crested

Established in 1780 by John Jameson, the sprawling Bow Street Distillery in the heart of Dublin was described as "a city within a city", boasting an onsite Cooperage, saw mill and copper smith.

Unfortunately, due to a downturn in the fortunes of the Irish whiskey industry, brought about in part by American Prohibition and the rising popularity of blended Scotch, Jameson were forced to join forces with their rivals, John Power & Son and the Cork Distillery Company to form the "Irish Distiller Group". Consolidating production at the ultra modern Midleton distillery in County Cork allowed the group to weather the storm, but production at Jameson ceased in 1971 and the the old Bow Street Distillery now serves only as a visitor centre and museum.

A cracking mixture of pure potstill and a much greater sherry influence gives this underrated Irish dram real class.

40% ABV / 70cl
