Jameson 5th generation Head Cooper, Ger Buckley, knows everything there is to know about wood, casks, butts and barrels. To celebrate his passion for Coopering, Jameson has created The Cooper’s Croze, the first of the Whiskey Makers Series to launch in the United States, focusing on the profound influence the wood yields on a whiskey’s character. The Cooper’s Croze uses virgin American oak, seasoned bourbon and Iberian sherry barrels. The whiskey’s namesake "The Croze", is named after Ger’s favorite tool, an implement used to make the groove into which the head of the cask or barrel is positioned.
