Description
2024 marks the 40th anniversary of Midleton Very Rare and 40 years since Master Distiller Emeritus Barry Crockett paved a path for status as the pinnacle of Irish whiskey. By utilising the finest raw materials, the most advanced techniques and a dedicated team of craftspeople, Barry Crockett created a legacy that has grown through the commitment and skill of the Master Distillers and teams that followed him.
Midleton Very Rare stands apart from many luxurious whiskeys on the market. Not only is it a rare example of Irish whiskey and all that it has been known for throughout generations, it has the weight of three Master Distillers behind it, bringing a level of consistency and quality that is simply unsurpassed.
This special vintage release, a true landmark in our portfolio of annual vintage releases, has been crafted with care by Master Distiller Kevin O’Gorman and his team.

About the Distillery:
The Midleton Distillery is the unequalled giant of Irish distilling, and the producer of some of the island’s best loved whiskeys, including Jameson, Redbreast and Powers. It can deservedly be seen as having saved the ancient tradition of whiskey making in Ireland, persevering alone through the gradual slump and near-on full collapse of Irish whiskey production, brought on by Prohibition and lasting through to the 1970s..
The New Midleton Distillery (right beside the Old one) was opened in 1975 by Irish Distillers. The company had been formed after three smaller distilleries, Jameson, Powers and the Cork Distillery, banded together for the sake of survival and shifted all their individual production to the only location fit for proper expansion.
