Midleton Very Rare Vintage Release 2022 Irish Whiskey

Midleton Very Rare Vintage Release 2022

Since 1984, each annual Midleton Very Rare release has represented the pinnacle of Irish whiskey craftsmanship, and the 2022 Vintage Release proudly continues that legacy. Masterfully created by Master Distiller Kevin O'Gorman, this exceptional expression is a carefully composed blend of rare single pot still and single grain Irish whiskeys drawn from Midleton Distillery’s exclusive private inventory.

For the 2022 release, O'Gorman meticulously selected whiskeys aged between 12 and 33 years, each matured in lightly charred ex-bourbon American oak barrels. The result is a whiskey of remarkable depth, elegance, and balance — delivering a refined and luxurious experience worthy of both collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Aroma: Elegant layers of sweet vanilla, toasted oak, honey, and ripe orchard fruits intertwine with delicate floral notes and gentle baking spices, creating a rich and inviting nose.

Taste: Smooth and exceptionally balanced with notes of creamy caramel, soft vanilla, dried fruits, and subtle oak spice. Waves of sweet grain and rich pot still character unfold beautifully across the palate with refined complexity.

Finish: Long, silky, and sophisticated with lingering oak spice, soft fruit sweetness, and a delicate warmth that slowly fades, leaving a lasting impression of depth and refinement.
