The lineup of events delivered in true Jameson form.
Jameson Black Barrel Ignites was the perfect way to usher in the December activities. The premium alternative soiree expressed what “touched by fire" meant, especially for the special double charred oak barrels that give Jameson its name and superior smoothness.
The night featured alternative music performances, a mind blowing gastronomical experience highlighting the taste notes of the whiskey and a “double charred” food menu.
Following JBB, on the 14th December, Tems endorsed and championed Jameson's ‘Widen The Circle’ campaign which celebrates the spirit of openness, challenging people to look beyond superficial barriers for the shared values that unite them.
