Hellhohoho October

How did we get here? There are just under 12 weeks to go until Christmas Day. That's not long to prepare for the big day, organise Christmas get togethers, buy the presents and write all those cards. Many of you have been asking for it (yes we are a little later this year) and we're delighted to let you know that our Christmas Gift Catalogue is now available to download so you can get a head start on the shopping leaving more time for you actually to enjoy the festive season.

Our 2023 brochure is bigger and better than ever before, it showcases our unique selection of wine and spirit (the alcoholic kind) gifts that will beautifully suit any occasion and will delight any wine or spirit lover. However, if you require something different, please let us know; we will tailor any gift or tasting to suit your budget or requirements.

We have also had some very special, eagerly awaited, limited-edition new arrivals. These have not been included in our catalogue as we don't expect their time on our shelves to last very long.

Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy Single Pot Still

€300

Few people are born into a job and fewer still can say that they were born where they work. Master Distiller Emeritus, Barry Crockett has both distinctions. Born in the Distiller’s Cottage, Barry Crockett has been immersed in the art of whiskey distilling for almost 50 years. Barry learned his craft from his father and Midleton Master Distiller, Max Crockett; eventually succeeding him as Master Distiller in 1981.

As a tribute to the man who is inextricably linked to the Midleton distillery and who has been instrumental in shaping the renowned Midleton style, Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy displays a distinctive pot still complexity yet is refined and poised on the finish.

Since 20th September, Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy has been presented in new luxurious sustainable packaging, replacing the wooden cabinet used since 2011, honouring the heritage of the past while striving for the future.

Powers John's Lane Cask Strength

€90

A landmark in Irish Whiskey. This exciting new release of the 12-year-old pot still cask strength Irish whiskey will now be a permanent addition to the Powers range. It honours the 18th and 19th century heritage of John’s Lane Distillery when Powers whiskey was sold straight from the barrel at cask strength, the higher ABV, 57.8% in the initial 2023 release, amplifies the much loved full-bodied character of the original, reaching new flavour heights.
Using a Pot Still distillate which is true to the original style of John’s Lane, the whiskey has been matured for at least 12 years, mainly in first fill American bourbon casks with a small contribution of distillate which has been matured in Oloroso sherry butts. The Cask Strength expression shows John’s lane in its natural, full-flavoured taste.
