Midleton Very Rare Blend 2015 Irish Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: Pot still spices – tannic oak, cinnamon and nutmeg – are straight out the block before they are tempered by creamy vanilla, rich toffee and plenty of ripe orchard fruit (green apple and Conference pear). A complex sweetness then builds underneath from muscovado sugar, tropical fruit in syrup and a touch of oak char.
Palate: Notes of agave, spice, caramel and smoke.
Finish: Smoky finish.
