Discover an extraordinary expression of Irish whiskey with Midleton Very Rare Irish Chestnut Edition – Cappoquin Estate, a remarkable release celebrating Irish craftsmanship, heritage and innovation. This exceptional single pot still Irish whiskey is the first of its kind to be finished in Irish sweet chestnut wood sourced from the historic Cappoquin Estate in County Waterford.
Crafted under the expertise of Master Distiller Kevin O’Gorman, this distinctive whiskey combines traditional distilling techniques with innovative wood maturation. Matured for 12 to 19 years in American oak bourbon barrels before spending a further five years in lightly toasted Irish chestnut hogsheads, it develops remarkable depth, complexity and character. Bottled at 56.1% ABV, at cask strength and non-chill filtered, it delivers an authentic and memorable tasting experience.
On the nose, rich aromas of honey-drizzled red apple and caramelised orange peel mingle with melted chocolate, toffee fudge and warming woodland spices of nutmeg, cinnamon and sandalwood. The palate reveals layers of sweet orchard fruits, citrus, vanilla and chocolate, complemented by classic pot still spices, delicate herbs and hints of cracked pepper. The finish is long and warming, with lingering orchard fruit, expressive spices and the distinctive influence of Irish chestnut wood.
With its pioneering chestnut cask finish, exceptional maturation and strong connection to County Waterford, Midleton Very Rare Irish Chestnut Edition is a standout addition to any premium Irish whiskey collection. Ideal for discerning whiskey enthusiasts, collectors and those seeking a luxurious gift, this exceptional release represents a distinctive milestone in Irish whiskey making.
