Description

One of the final ever bottlings in it's original box before they were modernised. A hugely collectible Whiskey. This Whiskey sold out everywhere years ago and we have some of the final ever bottles to be available on the market. Distilled in Midleton, co. Cork. All older Midletons now achieve huge money on the international auction market and have become instant collectibles. This one of the rarer ones, original destined for the US Market and bottled in 750ml size bottles instead of the usual European 700ml size. Midleton Very rare was first released in 1984. Only 50 casks are released each year which makes them very collectible, especially older and harder to find vintages. The whiskeys used in the blend are hand picked by the Master Distiller, all triple distilled and have aged between 12 and 25 years in individually Bourbon or Sherry casks. Style: Blend, 40%. Nose: Vibrantly fruity with aromas of apricots, pineapple, red apples, stem ginger, marzipan and fruit bread. Palate: Soft, smooth and juicy. Flavours of apricot, dried citrus peel, honey, pineapple and mango. Finish: Delicate spices lead through to the finish.
