Midleton distillery is the home of Jameson Irish whiskey as well as Redbreast, Powers and the Spot whiskeys, but they also release premium single pot still Irish whiskeys under their own label.

The buildings of the Midleton distillery began life rather abstemiously; used as a wool mill in the very late eighteenth century. Leased by Marcus Lynch, the buildings were sold to the government, who subsequently sold them to the Archbishop of Cashel in 1823 for the sum of £1,750. The Archbishop died later that year and the buildings were inherited by Lord Midleton. It was the three brothers Murphy who converted the mill into a distillery in 1825. They had acquired the buildings for £4,000. Stills were installed, including the world’s largest still with a capacity of 31,618 gallons. The distillery produced a range of brands and in 1966 the company joined John Powers and John Jameson to form the Irish Distillers Group and a new distillery was built at Midleton to produce all of their brands. This new distillery now has a capacity of 60m litres, following a large expansion project in 2013.

Green Spot Château Léoville Barton (70cl, 46%)

In stock
  • ( 0 Customer Review )

The first ever single pot still Irish whiskey finished in Bordeaux casks! The choice of Bordeaux wine is also significant – Ch. Léoville Barton is not only a highly-regarded grand cru Château, but one that takes it’s name from the Irish ‘Wine Geese’ winemaker Thomas Barton. In fact, Léoville Barton is still run by his descendants to this day. This bottling is a celebration of shared Irish heritage.

Matured initially in a mixture of ex-Oloroso Sherry, fresh American oak and ex-bourbon barrels, this Green Spot whiskey is then finished in the ex-Château Léoville Barton Bordeaux wine casks for 12 to 24 months.

Midleton Barry Crockett Legacy Bottle No.1437 (75cl, 46%)

In stock
  • ( 0 Customer Review )

This release celebrates the Midleton Distillery’s master distillery, Barry Crockett, a man with more than 50 years of experience in distilling, 35 of those years as the master distiller of the Midleton Distillery. This special whisky is a blend of single pot still whiskies laid down over the course of 22 years. These whiskies have mainly been aged in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels, resulting in a very vanilla-rich and slightly spicy whisky with an almost perfectly balanced oak influence. It is bottled at 46% without chillfiltration.

Released in 2011, Midleton’s Barry Crockett edition was named after the distillery’s master distiller, and it is aged in both bourbon and new American oak barrels! Very interesting indeed and a limited release of around 2,500 bottles per year.

Named after Midleton master distiller Barry Crockett.

Legacy was released in 2011, exclusively matured in Oak barrels which have previously contained American Bourbon.

Midleton Very Rare 2023 (70cl, 40%)

In stock
  • ( 0 Customer Review )

Midleton’s annual Very Rare series began in 1984 and sees each master distiller delve into the exclusive Midleton inventory to create an exceptional example of Irish whiskey. The 2023 release was composed by master distiller Kevin O’Gorman who, after months of exploration, selected a range of pot still and single-grain Irish whiskeys matured in lightly charred bourbon casks. Keeping sustainability in mind, the case for this 2023 edition isn’t made of oak as seen in recent years, instead, it’s housed in a hard cardboard fabric-lined box, inspired by the original packaging used for the series between 1984 and 1990.
