Description

Midleton Dair Ghaelach Bluebell Forest is a Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, part of the Virgin Irish Oak Collection. It is matured primarily in American oak Bourbon casks and then finished for 19 months in virgin Irish oak casks sourced from the Bluebell Forest on Castle Blunden Estate in County Kilkenny. Each bottle can be traced back to one of six individual 130-year-old oak trees that were carefully felled in May 2013.

Nose
The crisp Pot Still spices are seamlessly enriched by the woodland fragrances of the Irish Oak. Sweet vanilla notes are given depth by some chocolate honeycomb and coffee beans, whilst the balancing rich fruit aromas of red berries, pineapple and ripe banana compliment the subtle aromatic oils.
Palate
The typical Pot Still spices are fortified by the Irish Oak character. Robust yet mellow, clove and cinnamon give way to dairy fudge and milk chocolate sweetness combining with a touch of stewed apple.
Finish
An exceptionally long finish, with some sweet spices slowly fading, leaving the final bow to the Irish Oak.
