Jameson's "Black Barrel"

[Brian D.]

Another one of these crossover/hybrid/mutant beverages. Jameson's Irish Whiskey that spends some (?) of its aging time in bourbon barrels.

I asked Party Source if they could get a bottle in for their tasting bar, but apparently they couldn't get it done. So, I ponied up and bought a fifth without having sampled it.

To date I've gotten second opinions from about eight other bourbon/Irish enthusiasts, and all of us liked it at least as well as original Jamo.

Who else here has tried it? Share your thoughts, I won't be offended if you see it differently. It's not like I made the stuff, y'know?
