The Midleton Very Rare 2005 is part of the Midleton Very Rare series, launched by the Midleton distillery in 1984. This blend includes some of the finest distillates selected by the distillery manager at the time, Barry Crockett. The 2005 release is a blend that has been matured for at least 12 years in ex-Bourbon American oak barrels, which contributes to its flavor profile, characterized by notes of vanilla.
