Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a subtle mahogany edge.

Nose

Fragrant cedarwood and nutmeg lead to luscious red apple and salted caramel. Delicate nutty and chocolate undertones mingle with sweet oak, while citrus fruits, fresh garden herbs, and a hint of clove oil weave through the pot-still spice.

Palate

Fresh and vibrant orange zest and ripe peach lead the palate, with vanilla and white chocolate weaving in the sweetness. Charred oak delivers drying tannins reminiscent of black tea, while black pepper and cardamom spice provide a poised, lingering lift through the mid-palate.

Finish

A lasting finish where orange zest and peach mingle with vanilla and white chocolate, softly fading as a steadfast oak backbone grounds the whiskey.

Midleton
Midleton traces its story at the site in County Cork to 1825, when the distillery was acquired by the Murphy family, later becoming part of the Cork Distilleries Company. A major turning point came in 1966, when Cork Distilleries Company merged with John Power & Son and John Jameson & Son to form Irish Distillers, and in 1975 the new Midleton Distillery opened beside the old site, bringing Irish whiskey production from Dublin to Cork.
