Midleton Very Rare Dair Ghaelach Kinranelagh Wood Tree 3, 57.1%

Price: 490 Issue: Fall 2024 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Irish Single Pot Still

The key aroma on this one is marshmallow, accompanied by marzipan, vanilla, banana taffy, meringue, floral notes, and lemon hard candy, with dry spices taking a back seat. The palate is citrus-led and the fruitiest of the release, with lime zest, mandarin, honey, grapefruit flesh, peach, and a beating heart of pot still spices. Rich cinnamon on the finish with a hint of cocoa powder.—JM
