Most online liquor stores charge $20+ to ship a bottle.
Midleton’s Dair Ghaelach (meaning ‘Irish Oak’) series pays tribute to Ireland’s native forests. Each whiskey in this sustainable and innovative range was finished in a cask made from the wood of a single tree. Dair Ghaelach Kylebeg Wood Midleton Very Rare Virgin Irish Oak Collection Tree #5 first aged in American oak bourbon barrels. It was then finished in virgin native Irish oak hogsheads for two years, and bottled in 2021 at a cask strength of 56%. The oak for this release is sourced from Kylebeg Wood near Stradbally in County Laois.
Aromas: Forest notes of fresh pine accompanied by floral honey and ground pepper at first, while sweet and tropical fruits can be detected amongst the herbal green tea and freshly mown hay. The use of the native Irish oak lends itself to creating distinctive aromas of smoked almonds with sweet vanilla and cinnamon that are complimented by the pot still savoury spices.
Palate: Robust and lively at first with notes of dried chilli flakes and red bell peppers which quickly soften, allowing notes of candied orange and crisp red apple to shine through. The oak continues to deliver sweet vanilla and cinnamon spice throughout, while the pot still spices add a hearty and full-bodied nature to this complex and intricate whiskey.
