Jameson Cold
Brew, a innovative take on the classic
combination of Irish whiskey and coffee.
 Irish
Distillers, the folks behind
Jameson Irish Whiskey, which is produced
by at the Midleton
Distillery near Cork, Ireland have been
getting creative once again, this time
they have come up with Jameson Cold
Brew, an innovative take on the classic
combination of Irish whiskey and coffee.
Jameson Cold Brew
will be trialled in limited quantities
from September 2018 in response to the
growing global appetite for Irish
whiskey, quality coffee and
coffee-driven cocktails such as the
espresso martini.
Jameson Cold Brew which is bottled at
35% ABV is a combination of
triple-distilled Jameson Irish Whiskey
and refreshing cold brew coffee extract,
crafted from the finest, 100% Fairtrade
Arabica beans from Columbia and Brazil.
Jameson tell me that the result is a smooth, new Irish
whiskey experience, with a bold coffee
taste balanced with charred wood on the
palate and a warming mouthfeel on the
finish.
Underpinning the long-standing
association between Jameson and coffee,
Jameson Cold Brew is best served over
ice or in a coffee cocktail such as the
Jameson Cold Brew martini or the Jameson
Cold-Fashioned. The pilot innovation is
set to inspire bartenders and appeal to
lovers of whiskey, coffee and food with
a new Jameson experience that can be
enjoyed from day to night.
Jameson Cold Brew is set to tap into the
rise in popularity of both Irish whiskey
and coffee culture in key cities around
the world, typified by all-day coffee
shops that cater for both a daytime
caffeine fix and evening cocktail
experience.
Brendan Buckley, Strategy, Innovation
and Prestige Director at Irish
Distillers, commented: "Over the past
ten years, we have seen the continued
rise in popularity of both Irish whiskey
and craft coffee culture, and while the
two are no strangers in the glass we
wanted to modernise this iconic duo.
Jameson Cold Brew combines the best of
both worlds in a new and refreshing way
and we are confident that Irish whiskey
and coffee fans alike will enjoy the
taste experience it offers."
The new Jameson Cold Brew is presented in a 50cl bottle and will debut in
the Jameson Distillery Bow St, Dublin as
well as Northern Ireland and Dublin
airports from September with a RRP of
€28.50.
