Much better than the standard Jameson bottling. PLV top. Typical entry-level whiskey.

Typical Jameson, but with a little more sherry flavors and a lot of bourbon sweetness (vanilla). In the taste creamy vanilla caramel and again sherry flavors. Finish is medium long, a bit oily. Vanilla stays for a long time. Maybe not the most complex Jameson, but highly recommended.

Alcohol: 40%
Aroma: Classic scent, a little wood, cedar. In a blind test, I could guess bourbon. (75 pts)
Taste: Taste sweet, slightly woody, surprisingly pleasant. Vanilla, liquorice, cocoa, honey. (80 pts)
Points: 78
Summary: It's not exactly my cup of coffee because of perfume, but it's not really bad in the end. Tasted at a family party.

Select Reserve are the key words, and cask batches since 2013 are showing a broad inconsistency [on WB]. Matured in sherry & bourbon casks, its reported [on the tinter-web] to have a high proportion of Irish pot still & small batch grain whiskey?! What does that mean - 50/50? Or less?

N: No smoke whatsoever. I soon tire of the vanilla-driven spirit after the fruits have lifted away.

T: A lovely soft mouthfeel. The main story is one of a soft & predictable bourbon-vanilla youthful spirit-led journey, but the honeyed mouthfeel keeps some interest alive.

F: Simple yet lingering, the caramel appears very obvious now like a thick blanket coat on top. Bitter vanilla notes [E150a?] conclude.

C: Fairly simple inoffensive dram. The mouthfeel is the only clear highlight.

Scores a C-

it's not the same as Special Reserve, or maybe I had a worse batch. 

The taste was quite flat compering to the other.
