Midleton Very Rare 2019, 40%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2020 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Irish Whiskey
A classic with its nose of toffee, vanilla, treacle tarts, and fragrant pot still spices. Initially, flavors of green apple, red fruits, toffee, nimble spices, caramel, and vanilla before a minty master class: rubbed mint leaves become peppermint, developing into After Eight mints, then cool mints. Taste for a minute or more for the full experience. The smooth finish has clove, pepper, and bitter dark chocolate. Collectibles
