My October 'Whiskey of the Month' is Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition (40% - website). This is triple distilled, like most Irish whiskeys, blended, then matured in old whiskey barrels that have since been used to age stout brewed by Franciscan Well Brewery of Cork (website).
Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition is another pretty decent whiskey, and not expensive at all. Warm and slightly sweet, with subtle tastes of butterscotch, marzipan and coffee, and definitely chocolate in the finish; presumably these flavours very direct results of the stout seasoned barrels used in the ageing process. Smooth and leaving a warm glow as it goes down, slainte! 👍
