The world’s most awarded and bestselling Irish whiskey, Jameson, has announced its latest travel retail exclusive, Jameson Triple Triple Marsala Cask Edition, expanding its innovative cask-finished lineup.
This limited release introduces Marsala casks from Sicily’s Trapani region for the first time in a Jameson expression, joining the brand’s successful Triple Triple range that includes previous Málaga and Chestnut Cask Editions.

The new expression features a triple maturation process using American bourbon barrels, Oloroso sherry casks, and hand-selected Marsala casks from Sicily’s renowned Florio Winery. The American white oak Marsala casks, seasoned for two to three years, contribute distinctive notes of apricot, toffee apple, walnut, and woodland spices to Jameson’s triple-distilled whiskey.
“This limited release of Jameson Triple Triple Marsala Cask Edition is a wonderful example of how we continue to innovate while staying true to our tradition of triple distillation and meticulous cask selection at Midleton Distillery,” said Master Distiller Kevin O’Gorman. “This expression provides a unique opportunity to showcase the rich flavor contribution from these exceptional casks within the Jameson family, and we are excited for everyone to try it.”
Global Travel Retail Exclusive
The Marsala Cask Edition represents Jameson’s continuing focus on travel retail exclusives, offering whiskey enthusiasts something they can only find while traveling. The expression connects Ireland’s whiskey tradition with Sicily’s wine heritage, presenting travelers with a distinctive souvenir from their journeys.
Bottled at 40% ABV, Jameson Triple Triple Marsala Cask Edition carries an RRP of $45.50 (£37) and will be available exclusively through global travel retail locations for a limited time.
According to the official tasting notes, the whiskey offers a nose of fresh fruits including dried apricot, banana, and kiwi, complemented by woodland spices and walnut notes.
