Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy Whiskey

A . The Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy Whiskey is a refined and elegant tribute to one of Ireland’s most celebrated master distillers. First released in 2011, this exceptional whiskey is named after Barry Crockett. The man who played a pivotal role in shaping Midleton’s legacy.

Crafted in limited quantities – approximately 2,500 bottles per year. This rare expression is matured in a combination of seasoned bourbon barrels and new American oak casks. The result is a sophisticated and layered whiskey that embodies the very essence of Midleton’s artistry.

Beyond its impeccable liquid, the Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy now features a new, sustainable packaging design. Lighter and more environmentally friendly, it replaces the original wooden cabinet with a recyclable paper-based box.

The elegant duck-egg blue colour pays homage to the tradition of marking first-fill casks at the Midleton Distillery. While embossed symbols – the letter “B” for Barry Crockett, a key for legacy, and an orchid as the Midleton Very Rare brand emblem – add a meaningful touch.
