Jameson Orange Irish Whiskey

Jameson Orange Irish Whiskey is a vibrant, approachable flavored whiskey that blends Jameson’s classic smooth triple-distilled spirit with bright citrus zest and sweet orange character. Designed for versatility and easy enjoyment, it brings a lively, fruit-accented twist to the Jameson house style — ideal neat over ice or as the foundation for refreshing contemporary cocktails.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Crafted by Jameson Irish Whiskey, one of Ireland’s most recognized and widely enjoyed whiskey brands, this expression starts with the brand’s signature triple-distilled Irish grain and pot still whiskey blend. Jameson’s base spirit is known for its smooth texture, gentle spice, and balanced grain profile — traits derived from meticulous distillation and maturation predominantly in ex-bourbon barrels.

For Jameson Orange, natural orange essence and citrus-forward flavoring are integrated post-maturation to complement rather than overpower the whiskey’s core character. The result is a harmonious infusion of fruit-accented brightness with Jameson’s hallmark smoothness and subtle oak influence.
