Midleton - Very Rare 2022 Edition Whiskey
$1285.99 price per bottle
The individual nature of the selection process means that each year’s vintage provides its own unique character. The Midleton Very Rare range is not blended like any other whiskey. The uncompromising ritual and expertise of the Master Distiller leads to subtle but recognisable differences between the years. Midleton Very Rare was first created in 1984 as an example of excellence in Irish Whiskey and it has retained this post ever since. A combination of the magic of Midleton Distillery and the highest quality liquid and wood makes this whiskey one of a kind. Each vintage’s limited quantities herald it From the very first bottle, Midleton Very Rare whiskeys have always had a close and personal association with the Master Distiller, whose signature adorns every bottle ever released. Its creator, Barry Crockett, is a true Irish Whiskey legend, and his father Max Crockett led the way as Master Distiller before him. In fact, Barry was born and grew up in the Master Distiller’s House on the Midleton Distillery grounds. This deep history and heritage is one of the many reasons Midleton Very Rare is seen as the original prestige whiskey of Ireland. Nose: Opens with a delicate floral perfume closely followed by roasted coffee beans, salted caramel and honeycomb coming to the fore. Hints of nectarines that linger in the background evolve over time along with freshly grated ginger and nutmeg spice. The American oak provides structure throughout, ranging in depth from fresh woodland notes to aged charred oak. Taste: Baked orchard fruits with a touch of lime zest and kiwi. Mild pot still spices continue to build along with soft waves of vanilla, sweet coffee liqueur and cocoa powder. The texture initially round and full, gains additional wood spices with a delicate touch of clove oil and nutmeg adding a mild heat, giving balance to the sweetness. Finish: Lingering finish with the pot still spices and soft fruits eventually fading, allowing the oak to have the final say, highlighting the many years of maturation.
