Midleton Very Rare Silent Distillery Chapter 6

The nose opens with decadent dark fruits and malted barley drizzled with forest honey, layered with earthy dried tobacco, worn leather, and antique oak that reflect decades of careful ageing. Accents of burnt orange peel and grated ginger bring brightness, while subtle notes of black truffle, cocoa, and gentle nuttiness add depth. The palate reveals ripe stone fruits—peach and nectarine—joined by rich treacle and whiskey‑soaked raisins, with soft oak tannins and pot still spice creating a rounded, luscious texture. The finish is exquisitely long and evolving, moving from crisp, elegant sweetness into deeper, earthy oak‑driven tones, leaving a lasting impression of balance and complexity.
