Continuing the legacy established by Barry Crockett in 1984, this exceptional vintage exemplifies the artistry and precision that define the Midleton Very Rare collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlending Single Pot Still and Single Grain whiskeys aged between 13 and 35 years, each matured in lightly charred first-fill and refill ex-bourbon American oak barrels, the 2020 edition is a study in elegance and harmony. On the nose, it offers layers of honey, orchard fruit, and vanilla, with hints of apricot and toasted oak. The palate is luxuriously smooth, revealing flavours of ripe pear, toffee, caramel, and warm spice. The finish is long, silky, and refined - lingering with oak sweetness and a gentle spice glow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottled at 40% ABV, this rare release captures the signature smoothness and complexity that have made Midleton synonymous with Irish whiskey excellence.
