The 2026 release of Midleton Very Rare continues one of Irish whiskey’s most celebrated traditions. First introduced in 1984, each annual vintage showcases the pinnacle of craftsmanship at the historic Midleton Distillery.

Created by Master Distiller Kevin O'Gorman, the 2026 vintage is crafted from a carefully selected combination of aged single pot still and single grain whiskeys matured in Midleton’s warehouses, including the famed A2 Warehouse dating back to the 1860s.

The result is a beautifully balanced whiskey where vibrant pot still spice and orchard fruit meet the gentle sweetness of grain whiskey. Notes of toffee, butterscotch, vanilla and soft florals unfold across a smooth, layered palate, leading to a long and elegant finish.

A refined and collectible expression that continues the remarkable legacy of the Midleton Very Rare series.
