Midleton 1991 Single Cask

Country: Ireland

Region:

Type: Irish Pot Still

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 53.7%

Score: 93 Points

This is a rarity…a single Irish pot still whiskey bottled exclusively for sale at Dublin Airport’s duty-free shop. Cask #48709 was an ex-bourbon cask, and gave this whisky a light, crisp nose with hints of nutmeg, ginger, and green apples. The taste is spicy with cinnamon and black pepper notes, balanced well with vanilla, honey, green apples, and brown sugar. The finish is long, peppery, and smooth.
