Midleton Very Rare Release 2021 750ml

Midleton Very Rare Release 2021 – Midleton Very Rare Release 2021 is the 38th edition of premium Irish blended whiskey, composed of some of the best casks at Midleton distillery. This is the first edition created by Kevin OGorman as Master Distiller. It contains pot still whiskey as well as grain whiskey aged 15 to 36 years in lightly charred ex-bourbon American oak barrels.

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Starts with delicate floral perfume closely followed by roasted coffee beans, salted caramel and honeycomb coming to the fore. Bananas, kiwi and juicy nectarines, nicely mixed with marzipan, toffee and creamy coconut sweetness from the grain element. Some floral oak shavings and a hint of wood polish.
Palate : 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.
Finish: Lingering finish with some creamy coconut struggling to stand up against the grainy notes and spice.
