Midleton Very Rare 2026 Edition Irish Whiskey
The latest expression marks the 43rd annual release from Midleton Very Rare and the 6th Vintage under the careful watch of Master Distiller Kevin O’Gorman.
This year’s Vintage is a true reflection of Midleton Very Rare’s artistry, honouring the brand’s traditionally elegant flavour profile with a wonderful balance of distillate and wood-derived flavours. Five distillate styles (three single pot-still and two single grain styles) were carefully selected to create this year’s expression, including a select batch grain whiskey with a barley and malted barley mash bill that featured in last year’s Vintage. The inclusion of this style gives an enhanced sweetness to this remarkable whiskey.
