Tasting Notes:
Tasting Notes by Jim Murray

Nose: The raisiny, deftly honeyed brittle pot still eventually dominates the spice. Brooding stuff.

Palate: Jameson Gold shafts of honey pierce the oaky, barley-rich intensity. Excellent bittersweet balance, but tending on the sweetish side.

Finish: Docked marks for a slight briefness of finish. Hints of cocoa towards the end.

Comment: Sensational stuff of a style universally unique to Irish whiskey, the Midleton distillery in particular. A classic.

Tasting Notes by Michael Jackson

Nose: Fresh sweat. A shower with Badedas. Arousingly aromatic. Perfume. Rose water.

Palate: Creamy. Turkish delight.

Finish: Very emphatic tea character.

Comment: Those oily aromatics are quite a shock at first. Shows just how different a true 'Irish' character 15 years ago, or does Jameson benefit greatly from age?

Score: 8.75 / 10

I just found this bottle in my home bar.I forgot that my friend gave it to me 10 years ago. Anyone know what could be the price these days for it?

I'd agree. This is easily the best whisky I've ever tasted, and I'm gutted to find it was a limited run (explains why I haven't found it despite looking for 6 months).

BOUGHT 6BTLS OF THIS SENSATIONAL IRISH WHISKY.ONLY HAVE A HALF BTL LEFT. THIS BY FAR IS THE BEST I HAVE EVER TASTED,THE AROMA WHEN FIRST POURED IS TRULY REMARKABLE. HINTS OF BITTER SWEET HONEY AT FIRST,ON THE PALATE PURE SILK WITH A CREAMY OAK FINISH LASTS AT LEAST A FULL MINUTE.CAN NOT PUT THE GLASS DOWN.....
