Now available for International Shipping (exception: there is no shipping currently to Canada). Exclusive Release:  With just 168 bottles produced, the Adare Manor Midleton Very Rare Single Cask is the fifth exceptional release with Midleton Distillery. For the Adare Manor Single Cask release, Master Distiller Kevin O’Gorman has used his expertise from years as Midleton Head of Maturation to select a particularly special second fill bourbon barrel laid down by previous Master Distiller Barry Crockett in 2000. Now in its fifth year of partnerships, O’Gorman states of his third time producing an Adare Manor Single Cask, “Collaborating with Adare Manor on their fifth Midleton Very Rare Single Cask release is truly special. Distilled by my mentor, Master Distiller Emeritus Barry Crockett, in 2000, this remarkable whiskey has spent 22 years maturing in a second fill bourbon barrel, and now it is time to share it with the world.” Tasting Notes:  On the nose, the fifth edition of Adare Manor Midleton Very Rare has notes of citrus spice with lemon verbena and chamomile tea. The softer and more nuanced aromas of melon and orange peel are accompanied by the delicate pot still spices. The oak, while gentle, adds intricate notes of woodland spices with cinnamon and nutmeg that create further depth and complexity, adding sweet vanilla that suggests more decadent thoughts of crème brûlée. Tasting this unique whiskey, you are greeted by cinnamon spice with waves of creamy vanilla and citrus fruits, dancing around the palate, before subsiding to reveal a mild prickle of chilli oil and pepper. The oak’s soft tannins eventually subdue the spices to allow the sweet fruits to continue to build throughout. The finish is lasting, with the oak and pot still spices giving way to the last word of the soft fruits.   If you wish to visit the recently refurbished and expanded Boutique at Adare Manor to purchase the Adare Manor Midleton Very Rare Single Cask No.5, please contact  061-605288.
