Midleton Very Rare — Ireland’s most prestigious whiskey, a collector’s vintage from the master distiller’s finest casks.
Each year the Midleton Master Distiller hand-selects a tiny number of exceptional aged single pot still and grain whiskies for Very Rare. This vintage release — the 40th-anniversary edition, bottled in 2024 — celebrates four decades of excellence, at natural cask strength.
Blended from Midleton’s exclusive reserves, Very Rare balances depth and elegance. Ripe orchard fruit and warm spice on the nose lead to a rich, layered palate and a long, smooth finish — a genuine collector’s bottle.
