South Africa’s whisky aficionados now have the chance to enjoy two remarkable new offerings, each a celebration of tradition, innovation, and pure luxury.
Jameson Triple Triple Chestnut Edition
The Jameson Triple Triple Chestnut Edition, is a world-first release launching exclusively in South Africa before launching early 2025 in the UK, US, Ireland, India, Poland and Canada.
Marketing Director for Pernod Ricard Africa Middle East, Nthabiseng Motsoeneng, said, “We are delighted to be the first country to launch the Jameson Triple Triple Chestnut Edition, providing our consumers with a new and exciting one-of-a-kind experience.
“It’s the Jameson everyone knows and loves, with an elevated twist. Born in Ireland yet raised in Mzansi”.
Crafted in the Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Ireland, the Triple Triple Chestnut Edition has been triple-distilled and matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon, Oloroso sherry, and hand-selected sweet chestnut casks.
This unique blend introduces rich layers of toffee, cacao, and toasted almonds, elevating the signature smoothness of the whisky.
