- Description
- Midleton's 38th Very Rare edition, the first bottled under master distiller Kevin O'Gorman, a blended Irish whiskey at 40% ABV. The nose opens with honeysuckle and geranium, followed by roasted coffee and salted caramel, while the palate delivers apple, lime, vanilla, dark chocolate, and pot still spice. Elegant and layered with a refined texture that shows considerable balance. A milestone release for collectors and an excellent entry point into Midleton's prestigious series.
