Whiskies from 'Old Midleton Distillery'

Read the Whisky Magazine tastings notes for whiskies from Old Midleton Distillery.

• Midleton Very Rare

Don't know how Barry Walsh keeps this standard up year on year, the most robust MVR in ages. Bravo!

• Midleton Very Rare

In general, Midelton is a bit too elegant for me, but this is a lovely vintage. The Yquem of whiskies?

• Redbreast 12 Years Old

Delicious, soothing, contemplative. A great whiskey. Makes me want to get on a plane to Dublin immediately

• Redbreast 12 Years Old

This is what real pure pot still whiskey is all about, a glorious contradiction of soft fruit and firm grain, oily seeds and sweet wood. World beating stuff.

• Redbreast 12 Years Old

Those oily, cakey aromas still have me hankering for a weekend in Dublin. Tea and cakes at the Shelbourne, then off to the Horseshoe Bar for the first whiskey of the evening.
