This expression includes both single malt and single grain whiskey, often from many different distilleries. The whiskey is aged for an undisclosed amount of time, and it&#8217;s bottled at a lower proof of 40% ABV.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Price Range<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Jameson Distillery Edition is a reasonably priced whiskey, with a cost of around $40\u201360 per 700mL bottle. It&#8217;s important to note that this whiskey can only be purchased at the Midleton Distillery in Co. Cork, Ireland, which may affect the price for buyers outside of Ireland.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tasting_Notes\"><\/span><strong>Tasting Notes<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Aroma<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I found the aroma of Jameson Distillery Edition to be quite pleasant. The nose is fruity and sweet, with notes of fig, vanilla, and sugarcane. There is also a hint of ginger and buttered corn that adds a nice complexity to the aroma.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Flavor<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>On the palate, Jameson Distillery Edition is smooth and easy to drink. The flavor is sweet and fruity, with a lot of creaminess that makes it feel almost like a dessert. I could taste the same fig and sugarcane notes that I found in the aroma, as well as a hint of vanilla and a subtle spice that added a bit of depth to the flavor.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Finish<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The finish of Jameson Distillery Edition is relatively short, but it is still quite enjoyable. There is a slight peppery kick that lingers on the tongue, but it is not overpowering. Overall, the finish is smooth and easy to drink, making it a great option for those who are new to whiskey.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Rating<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I would give Jameson Distillery Edition a solid 8 out of 10. While it is not the most complex whiskey out there, it is incredibly easy to drink and has a pleasant flavor profile that I think most people would enjoy. If you are a fan of sweeter whiskies, I would definitely recommend giving this one a try.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mixing_and_Pairing\"><\/span><strong>Mixing and Pairing<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As a whiskey enthusiast, I always like to experiment with different mixers and food pairings to complement the flavors of my favorite whiskey.
