I always keep a bottle of the Black Barrel at my home bar. Best for any cocktail that calls for Irish Whiskey.

Tried this on the distillery tour while in Dublin, absolutely the best! Smooth taste, especially for a Jameson and Ginger.

Have always loved the standard Jameson but this Black Barrel adds a smokiness and depth of flavor that is above and beyond

I’m a fan of the Jameson brand. The Jameson black barrel is a rich smooth flavor that is a pleasure to enjoy over good conversation with friends. It has a nice oak flavor that is not overwhelming or harsh and allows the notes of honey caramel to come through delightfully sip after sip.

I got turned into Hameson Black Barrel because of it 90+ rating by Wine Spectator and have been hooked ever since. It’s my go-to for fun cocktails as well as sipping with a touch of ice. Flavorful, smooth and always surprisingly delicious - my #1 choice whenever it’s available!

We have visited Ireland several times and the last time, finally made it to the Jameson distillery. That gave us the opportunity to taste a variety of Jameson's whiskeys, all of which were distinctive and delicious. However, I tried Black Barrel about 5 years ago at a friend's house and it immediately became my favorite Irish whiskey. Smooth and rich... a perfect sipping whiskey. It's always front and center on our home bar in a decanter with a JBB hanger that came on the first bottle I bought. Last Summer we bought an Irish Terrier puppy. With Black Barrel as our "house pour" for Irish Whiskey, we named him... what else... Jameson. Friends and family love his name, which has led to many tastings of Black Barrel in our kitchen.

Already love the original Jameson. When it got this as a present for my birthday I was thrilled and rightfully so. This edition is so smooth. Actually you could say dangerous smooth. I drank it on the rocks. A good mixed drink with this is 1.5 Jameson, .5 peach schnapps, and about 4 oz homemade sour mix.

A week ago, my whiskey drining buddy and I happened upon an Irish whiskey purveyor here in Kansas City and we decided to compare. We tried the Jamesons, along with other brands (I'm not supposed to mention other brands but you can guess - some had colors in their name). By FAR, Black Barrel was the best, and that's even comparing it to Jameson 18 year reserve (sorry, 18). The smooth, richness with an appealing finish is what got my attention. And considering the price difference, well, you know the rest of the story. Just buy a bottle. If you don't like ti, send it to me.

This is the one i have been looking for for a long time. This has that smooth taste and felling i have missed. The other companies have gotten away from this type of drink. Very glad you brought it back and thanks for making drinking worth doing again.

Jameson Black Barrel poured with a robust Ginger ale And generous Quarter to Half Lime on Ice offers an impressive blend of all three flavors - we have named it the Jameson Majestic - it is quick pour with the simplest blend offering a dramatic surprise reference of all its composite flavors.
