Midleton Very Rare Vintage 2022 700ml
$613.99 price per bottle
Colour: deep copper.
On the nose: heavily perfumed. Don’t come to this expecting even traditional pot still notes until it settles. Fresh green apples, kiwi fruit, mango and a little coconut sweetness, with light, floral honey and custard cream biscuits. The vanilla unravels into apple peelings, pear drops, a touch of grapefruit. Old roses, jasmine.
In the mouth: exceptional silkiness, with plenty of vanilla beginning to show at the start. That same light floral honey, with pear juice and green apples again. There are numerous layers to this – the depth and complexity are obvious – yet they feel very much constructed around the same core flavours: fresh fruits vary from the pears to oranges, with a little lime acidity; and the vanilla, toffee fudge notes and so on. Ginger – lovely and elegant – drifts off to the finish. When you’re sipping it in a less analytical manner, the toffee and vanilla notes do tend to dominate, yet that silkiness is really quite something – the grain whiskey really does its thing well.
