Invite Jameson to Your St. Patrick’s Day Party

St. Patrick’s Day will not be complete without a taste or two of fine Irish Whiskey. This month (yes…all month), we’ll be celebrating the famous Irish missionary with a bottle of Jameson’s Black Barrel Reserve, noted for its fruitiness, subtle sweetness, and hints of roasted almonds, cinnamon, cloves, and vanilla bean. Drink it neat, add it to your Guinness, or create one of these festive cocktails to serve along with your St. Patrick’s Day feast. It’s an extremely versatile spirit that you’ll easily enjoy all year long.
