It had to be Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy for this week's Whiskey Wednesday. It wasn't an easy choice, with so many top shelf Irish Whiskeys to choose from at a local pub, but I think I made the right one. What a special and delicious whiskey! Every sip from the beginning to end was really, very good. Maybe sipping it outside, on a lovely afternoon, added to the enjoyment of it as well.
Released in 2011, Midleton's Barry Crockett edition was named after the distillery's master distiller. It is the first whiskey, since John Jameson that an Irish Distillers product had been named after a Master Distiller. It is aged in both bourbon and new American oak barrels. It has a limited release of only 2500 bottles a year.
Cheers to making it halfway through the week! π₯
Notes from Masters of Malt:
Nose: Soft, sweet notes of barley, floral honey, rosemary, citrus, cut hay, Summer meadows and toffee apples.
Palate: Sweet tobacco leaves and cedar, sugared peels, toffee, honey softness, vanilla and boiled sweets.
Finish: Very creamy and vanilla-rich, cinnamon and a little pear drop on the tail.
