Description

A very special limited release from the Midleton distillery to celebrate 30 years - the pearl anniversary - of the Very Rare series in 2014. This exceptional Irish blend is a collaboration between retired Master Distiller Barry Crockett and new Master Distiller Brian Nation. They personally selected a 1984 Single Pot Still Irish whiskey and a 1981 grain whiskey, both matured in American oak barrels, to create this whiskey of exceptional quality. Only 117 bottles were produced worldwide.

Nose
The initial fresh herbal notes of crushed garden mint and rosemary, a testament to the quality of the ex-bourbon barrels. Soft honey sweetness along with beeswax shows its antique character while hints of gingerbread combine with toasted oak to compliment some pot still spices.
Palate
The soft silky mouth coating is initially honey sweet, then the fresh herbal flavours follow through with a touch of menthol. The spicy notes concentrate, staying sweet with cinnamon and liquorice before the toasted oak adds to the complexity.
Finish
The succulence of the herbs and spices is very slow to fade.
