Jameson Whiskey Distillery

This evening, I am reprising a tour of Jameson Whiskey Distillery near Cork, about 150 miles S.W. of Dublin, Ireland.

Actual location is Midleton which is home to the Jameson Whisky Experience.

The guided tour was focused on the Old Distillery which ceased production on 1975 and replaced with a functioning distillery on an adjacent site. Here we were shown the whiskey making process from malting and mashing through to fermentation, distillation and maturation culminating in a tasting.
