Midleton 'Dair Ghaelach' Knockrath Forest Single Pot Still Tree No. 3 Irish Whiskey, Ireland (750ml)

The latest chapter of the Midleton Dair Ghaelach story. Translated to English, Dair Ghaelach means Irish Oak. This single pot still has first been matured in a combination of American oak, ex-bourbon barrels before being finished for 2 years in Virgin Irish Oak. With the youngest whiskey being 15 and the oldest 28, each cask was hand selected by Billy Leighton, Master Blender and Kevin O’Gorman, Master of Maturation. The Knockrath Forest is situated deep in the Wicklow Mountains, a stones throw from the stunning Glendalough valley. Each of the 7 trees were sustainably harvested, yielded just 42 casks. Tree 3 has an oriental spiciness to it. Warming clove and paprika, with some smokiness lingering.
