World's #1 Irish Whiskey
Jameson Original Irish Whiskey
Jameson4.7(28,000 reviews)
Jameson Original is the flagship Irish whiskey that defined a category globally since John Jameson founded Bow Street Distillery in Dublin in 1780. Handcrafted at the Midleton Distillery in Cork, it is blended from the finest pot-still and grain whiskies, triple distilled in copper pot stills for unrivaled smoothness. Maturing for at least four years in oak casks, it strikes the perfect balance of crisp orchard fruits, creamy vanilla, and toasted wood with a pleasant, dry oak warm spice finish. Celebrated for its sessionable, clean, and highly approachable character, it is perfect enjoyed neat, highball-style with ginger ale, or in an iconic Irish Coffee.

This creates bold, robustly complex, and deeply spiced spirits with rich profiles in a fraction of the time required in cooler European climates.

“Absolutely spectacular! Visited a local outlet in Vasant Kunj and picked up Jameson Original Irish Whiskey. At ₹2,260 in Delhi, this represents incredible value. The notes of Light Orchard Fruit and Creamy Vanilla Pod pair phenomenally well with home-cooked Butter Chicken. Highly recommended!”
