Introducing Jameson Orange – A Zesty New Take On A Classic Whiskey!

by Leave a Comment

Jameson Orange!

Jameson Irish Whiskey, produced by Irish Distillers in Midleton Distillery, is introducing a zesty new expression to its core range!

Building on the success of Jameson Cold Brew, Jameson Orange brings consumers another whiskey-forward spirit drink, inspired by a classic whiskey cocktail, the Old Fashioned.

Jameson Orange will be available in premise and retail in the UK at an RRP of £23.95 from August 2021

Innovating as only Jameson can, Jameson Orange combines the finest triple-distilled Jameson Irish Whiskey with natural orange flavouring. The result is a deliciously smooth, naturally zesty, subtly sweet and perfectly balanced expression. Bottled at 30% ABV and bursting with flavour, the new release introduces a whiskey-focused, modern, low-sugar twist to the growing flavoured spirits category.

With the popularity of flavoured whiskeys and spirits on the rise, Jameson Orange is set to tap into this opportunity through a limited roll out in markets where there is a clear consumer demand for quality flavoured offerings. Debuting on shelves in the UK from August 2021, Jameson Orange will launch in Russia in November alongside a second flavour variant, Jameson Lime & Ginger, inspired by the signature Jameson serve. Jameson Orange will also launch in the US in 2022.

The concept behind Jameson Orange was to create a product which would appeal to a growing audience of flavoured spirits fans, that draws on the quality and integrity of our award-winning triple distilled Irish whiskey.

Like Jameson Cold Brew and the forthcoming Jameson Lime & Ginger, Jameson Orange’s flavours are inspired by a classic whiskey cocktail, and we’re confident that this focus on taste and quality will appeal to a broad audience of whiskey fans, bartenders, and curious spirit drinkers.
– Brendan Buckley: International Marketing Director at Irish Distillers

Taste is at the heart of every sip of Jameson produced.

Triple distilled whiskey like ours involves a carefully crafted process, perfected over hundreds of years. This innovation builds on that craft and we are incredibly proud to share this exceptionally well balanced and intensely zesty creation with new and existing whiskey fans looking to explore and experiment.
– Kevin O’Gorman: Master Distiller at Irish Distillers

Jameson has been driving growth in the Irish whiskey category for over 30 years, selling 7.6 million cases worldwide in 2020. Its success is driven by a large consumer base in the USA and buoyed by other key markets including the UK, Russia, South Africa and Ireland. Jameson also continues to perform exceptionally well in emerging markets including Nigeria, India and Brazil.

Jameson Orange will be available in premise and retail in the UK at an RRP of £23.95 from August 2021


Jameson Orange recommended serve:

Pour over ice with lemonade and a wedge of orange.

Jameson Lime & Ginger recommended serve:

Pour over ice with lemonade and a wedge of lime.

Tasting Notes:

Nose:

Exceptionally well-balanced aromas of zesty peel and juicy orange citrus fruits, with sweet whiskey undertones.

Sukhinder Singh, Co-Founder Of The Whisky Exchange To Sell Majority Of His Old & Rare Miniatures Collection!

by Leave a Comment

Fantastic collection of old and rare miniatures from Sukhinder Singh heads to auction!

Sukhinder Singh, co-founder of leading global whisky retailer The Whisky Exchange, is putting part of his miniatures collection up for auction via Whisky.Auction from Sunday 15th August, including some very rare examples of early bottlings.

Sukhinder Singh, co-founder of The Whisky Exchange

Sukhinder will be selling 400 miniatures from his collection amassed over several decades, many matching the full bottles he also owns. The majority of the miniatures are single malt or blended Scotch, but there are also some gin, cognac and rum lots too. Highlights from the auction include:

· An extremely rare 1940s Glenfiddich Special with box

· The only known example of a miniature bottled by Gordon & Macphail – a 1930s Glen Grant – believed to be the first miniature they ever bottled

· A pair of very old Cardhu sales samples, believed to be the only known examples with a UK label

· Close to 100 beautiful old blended scotch whiskies, mostly bottled in the 1930s & 1940s originally purchased from David Maund, chairman of the UK miniature bottle club for nearly two decades.

Well-known in the whisky world for his unrivalled collection of Scotch whisky, Sukhinder originally collected miniatures – building up a collection of 5000 different whisky miniatures by the early 2000s.

He sold this collection to focus on old and rare bottles of malt, but has continued to collect some miniatures ever since. He will be selling the majority of his current miniatures collection in this auction, reserving just 100 that he cannot part with, focusing on collecting one from each distillery.

There are two types of people who buy miniatures, the collector and the drinker. Miniature collecting has been going on since miniatures began back in the early 1900s. In the early years I remember buying a number of collections from people who had been collecting for over 40 years. What I do like about miniatures is that large collections are easier to display. Each miniature tells a story of the liquid and the distillery.

Over the last five or so years as prices for bottles of the rarer single malts have increased, more people are looking at miniatures of the same so they can open and try the liquid. In some cases the miniatures seem to work out cheaper by the measure than buying a large bottle.

At one point some 20 years ago, I thought miniature collecting would die out as it was difficult and costly to find miniatures from around the world. Then as the internet became more popular, it was much easier to find fellow enthusiasts and new miniatures. Over the last 10 years, the hobby has grown considerably and prices for rarer miniatures now fetch thousands of pounds.
– Sukhinder Singh: Co-founder of The Whisky Exchange

The auction will go live on Sunday 15th August

The collection will be sold as part of the quarterly miniatures and memorabilia auction from Whisky.Auction, which will be live from Sunday 15th August, with lots beginning to close from 7.30pm Tuesday 24th August.
