Description

The Midleton Very Rare 2006 is an Irish whiskey that is part of an annual series initiated in 1984. Each bottle from this series is individually numbered and carries the signature of the Master Distiller, Barry Crockett, which serves as a testament to its authenticity. This blend of single pot still and single grain Irish whiskeys was aged in a mix of first and second fill ex-bourbon casks for a period ranging from 12 to 25 years. Bottled at 40.0% alcohol by volume, it is noted for its limited production.

Nose
Initial aromas of toasted wood brings with it strong roasted coffee notes and rich waves of sweet vanilla and honeycomb. Mild fruity undertones of green apple and orange zest add further dimensions of flavour, carefully weaving amongst the heavier pot still spices and the subtle and delicate floral notes that softly linger in the background.
Palate
Vibrant and sweet. Fresh fruits of sweet pear, apples and apricot appear along with dairy fudge and sugar cane, before slowly subsiding to reveal spices of ginger, freshly grated nutmeg and cinnamon. The charred American oak continues to build over time yet allowing the fruits and spice elements to remain evenly balanced.
Finish
The sweet fruits and spices effortlessly linger for a time before slowly fading, allowing the oak to have the final say.
