Midleton Barry Crockett Legacy Bottle No.1437 (75cl, 46%)
€450.00
Available : instock
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.

Description
Tasting Note
Nose: Tropical pineapple (!) and crushed peanuts specifically, a bit like the combo you get on the outside of those soft cheese rings. Rich, rounded, spicy – prunes, quinces, a little deeply caramelised apple.
Palate: Mouth-filling and reassuring. A little menthol alongside the expected spiciness and some leather. On the tail there’s a touch of nectarine.
Finish: A little tangy fruit gives way to sweet and savoury barley notes.
Overall: Tremendous! Intricate and still full of life even though there’s a good proportion of whiskey older than 21 years old in there. Thoroughly enjoyable and one of the very best Irish whiskeys we’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting.
