40th Anniversary Irish Whiskey 70cl

The limited 40th Anniversary Ruby Edition from Midleton Very Rare, the pinnacle of Irish Whiskey Nose: Opens with a rich and delightful burst of berry fruits as notes of blackcurrant, raspberry, and plum come to the fore. A delicate perfume with aromatic spices and an earthy woodland character are complemented by the additional orchard fruits and citrus peel, all the while the seasoned oak imparts sweet vanilla, cinnamon, and fragrant honeycomb. The elegance of the grain whiskey quietly emerges to reveal soft and nuanced floral undertones. Taste: Succulent fruits at first that are initially met with pot still spices, imparting notes of freshly grated ginger and clove oil. The oak’s soft tannins, combined with a nutty character, impart notes of flaked almonds and nutmeg that are wonderfully balanced by the seasoned port cask’s contribution of ripe berry fruits, cassis, and dark chocolate. Finish: Luxuriously long and satisfying, where the seasoned oak, fruits and spice continue to linger, eventually yielding only to time.
