Description
Distilled in 2011 from a carefully selected pot still, this spirit was matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks. The interaction between the young, vibrant whiskey and the seasoned wood has resulted in a complex and harmonious flavor profile.
Nose: The aroma is a captivating blend of sweetness and spice. Fresh honey takes center stage, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and spice. The whiskey’s youthful energy is evident, promising a vibrant palate experience.
Palate: The palate is full-bodied and remarkably smooth. The initial sweetness of honey is complemented by a gentle warmth from the oak. A subtle touch of spice adds intrigue, while the underlying pot still character provides a robust foundation. The whiskey’s freshness and vitality are immediately apparent.
Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, with the sweet and spicy notes gradually fading to reveal a delicate balance of oak and spirit. This is a whiskey that rewards contemplation, revealing new layers of flavor with each sip.
With its limited availability and exceptional quality, the 2011 Midleton Very Rare Vintage Release is a true collector’s item. This is not merely a beverage; it is a piece of Irish whiskey history, waiting to be savored and cherished.
40% ABV, 70cl.
Serial Number: 039982.
Nose: Fresh honey, light and bright, with mellow spice reminiscent of Midleton’s Redbreast but cleaner and lighter.
Palate: Luxurious and spreading flavors of bright allspice and light alcohol, with a light oily mouthfeel enhancing the experience.
Finish: Long and evolving, starting with sweet honey and floral notes, transitioning to rich oak and pine, and finishing with a mellow spiciness.
