A very special addition to the Midleton Very Rare collection, this is the 37th instalment which was started by Midleton legend Barry Crockett. Distiller Brian Nation was only the second distiller to continue the legacy of the very rare collection with this bottling being his last.
From 2021, the responsibility of this premium Irish Whiskey series will sit with recently appointed Kevin O’Gorman – having worked at Midleton since 1998 and acting as Master of Maturation since 2007. Midleton Very Rare 2020 is bottled at 40% ABV.
Taste
Initial burst of tangy fruit sweetness of orange peel and sweet pear creating a succulent texture while the pot still spices build overtime adding a mild prickle of chilli oil. The presence of the charred oak remains constant in the background adding balance to the fruits and spices.
Nose
Initial top notes of cane sugar and vanilla intertwined with pepper and nutmeg spices, complimented by sweet orchard fruits and white chocolate fudge all layered over polished antique wood notes, showcasing an intriguing balance between spirit and wood thanks to the complex interaction from the many years spent in the finest oak casks.
Finish
Satisfyingly long finish with the fruits slowly fading, allowing the oak and spices to linger until the very end.
