Whiskey with a pub-night twist, this Irish whisky gets its extra flavour from barrels that previously held stout. Think toasted malt, cocoa, and a little coffee vibe, like someone spiked your dessert with a good story. It’s an easy win in cocktails like an Irish Coffee or a Whiskey Sour when you want more depth than the usual pour.

This is Irish whisky with a stout-soaked side quest, and it works. The idea is simple, then dangerously drinkable: Jameson finishes this whiskey in barrels that previously held Irish stout, so you get those roasted, chocolatey notes layered right into the classic Jameson backbone.
If you like your whisky to have a little extra going on, without turning it into a science project, this is the move. It’s friendly enough for newcomers, but the malt and cocoa notes keep it interesting for the people who always “just want one more sip.”
- Nose: Toasted barley, cocoa powder, a hint of coffee bean, and warm orchard fruit.
- Taste: Malt biscuits, milk chocolate, gentle spice, and a creamy, beer-barrel richness that sits under the fruit.
- Finish: Roasted notes linger with a touch of dark chocolate and soft spice, like the last bite of a brownie.
The best part is how it plays in cocktails. That stout-cask character brings a roasted depth that shows up fast, so your drinks taste more “built” without needing ten ingredients. Irish Coffee gets an instant mocha edge, and a Whiskey Sour comes out rounder, with a faint cocoa and malt note behind the citrus.
There’s also a very specific vibe here: classic Irish whiskey brightness, plus the comforting, toasty flavours you’d normally get from a pint-adjacent dessert. It’s not trying to be smoky. It’s not trying to be loud. It’s just a really satisfying twist that makes you want to pour another round for someone and watch their reaction.
And yeah, it’s still unmistakably Irish whiskey in character, approachable, balanced, and built for sharing, but the stout barrel finish gives it a darker, roastier lane that most bottles at this level don’t even attempt.
Fun Fact: Caskmates started as a real collaboration between Jameson and a local Irish craft brewery, swapping barrels back and forth so each side could season the other’s drink with extra flavour.
