Jameson Irish Whiskey 2017 St Patricks Day Edition

Jameson Irish Whiskey 2017 St Patricks Day Edition features local artist Steve McCarthy, who took inspiration from the saying “Dublin rewards those who ‘chance their arm.'” McCarthy put his twist on the expression that still lives on today with his design for the 2017 Limited Edition Jameson Whiskey Bottle. Every St. Patrick’s Day, Jameson honors their Irish heritage by collaborating with some of the top artists found in Ireland. Each year, the design and designer’s name appear on the labeling. This year, Steve designed a lovely label by merging historical and contemporary Dublin with his own unique style. His work is usually inspired by the playful use of works that Irish are infamous for. “Chancing your arm” can be interpreted as ‘taking a shot in the dark’ or stepping out of your comfort zone. You can learn more about Steve McCarthy and the collaboration here.

There’s a lot of craft and care that goes into every bottle of Jameson Irish Whiskey. Coopers, blenders, distillers, just to name a few. And it’s funny how when you make something with craft and care, you cross paths with other passionate people.  John Jameson established the way of making whiskey in 1780 and it’s been proudly sticking to it ever since. It might not be the easiest way, but insisting on the finest ingredients, triple distillation, and aging our whiskey in seasoned oak barrels has been the secret behind our signature smoothness. Jameson collaborated with Beavertown, a micro-brewery based out of Hackney, East London, to produce an imperial stout aged in Jameson casks. The stout is named Ger’onimo in honour of Ger Buckley, fifth generation Master Cooper at the Jameson Distillery, who Beavertown founder Logan Plant met when he travelled to Midleton, Co. Cork to select the barrels.
