IrishWhiskeyChaser wrote:The Jameson Collection "Cooperage & HORSE" were special limited edition releases of regular Jameson for the Dutch & German markets but in 1 litre bottles. Possibly issued on 2 separate years as a sequence in the mid 90's which did not go any further. I have long got rid of my 2 so cannot check for L codes but no major value on those.
Jameson Marconi is a fairly straight forward limited edition to commemorate 100 years of radio 1895 - 1995 I think so stands to reason it was released in 1995. I've forgotten if it was the precursor of the Gold with the Virgin oak bit but would not be surprised if it was. Getting more and more rare as the years go by value probably circa €100-120Euro

I'd probably go with John on this one. Had a bottle of Marconi and the old Jameson Gold open side by side and I too preferred the Gold.
However the Marconi was nice too.
It really is all a matter of preference and taste.
May be an idea to taste hte Old and New Golds side by side to see what the differences are today, if any.

That's a nice collection, an excellent variety of tastes. I'm taking notes.

Everything I listed is unopened and gathering dust so it will stay that way. I had a lot more but went on a bit of a selling spree since Christmas, God Bless eBay. Here's what's left.

I have started using it, but have to register a lot of bottles not on their database, so I'm not fully up to date on my collection.
