Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a 12-year-old single pot still Irish whiskey from Midleton Distillery, made from malted and unmalted barley and shaped by ex-bourbon and sherry casks, including the influence of Spanish oak. That combination gives it the assertive, spicy backbone pot still fans look for, wrapped in a silky texture and a rich sherry finish. Expect sherry, dried fruit and oak on the nose, then baking spice balanced by honeyed sweetness, vanilla and a nutty edge, with a long, contemplative finish. At 46% ABV (92 proof), it has enough presence to reward slow sipping neat or with a splash of water. It is still approachable for someone trying the style for the first time. Collectors will appreciate the nod to Mitchell & Son Ltd., one of Ireland's last remaining wine merchants and whiskey bonders. We carry it because it shows what single pot still Irish whiskey does best: spice and fruit in real balance, with enough depth to anchor a tasting night.
Pairs well with
- Roast duck — The whiskey's sherry richness and baking spice stand up to the savory, fatty depth of roast duck.
- Chocolate desserts — Dried fruit, honey and vanilla notes play naturally against dark, rich chocolate.
- Whiskey tasting night with cheeses — Its sherry and Spanish oak influence gives guests plenty to discuss alongside aged cheeses that echo its nutty, savory side.
