About this product
From Smoky Barrel to Bold Identity.
Joe Got A Gun is a robust and flavourful Tennessee whiskey that celebrates American heritage with a modern twist. Distilled in Tennessee using traditional methods and carefully aged in oak barrels, it delivers a full-bodied, smooth profile that makes it perfect for sipping neat, on the rocks, or in classic whiskey cocktails.
On the nose, it presents aromas of caramel, toasted oak, vanilla, and subtle spice, while the palate is rich and balanced, revealing notes of brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a gentle peppery warmth. The finish is long, warming, and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of sweet oak and spice.
For whiskey enthusiasts in Ireland, Joe Got A Gun offers a bold yet approachable taste of Tennessee craftsmanship, combining heritage, depth, and smoothness in a versatile whiskey that stands out in both sipping and mixing scenarios.

Joe Got a Gun stands out for its fierce personality and balanced flavour. The sweet corn backbone is elevated by cold-smoke undertones and nuanced spices, offering complexity without compromising drinkability.
