A tribute to craftsmanship, complexity, and Irish whiskey heritage.
Midleton Barry Crockett Legacy is the benchmark for Single Pot Still Irish whiskey—a permanent expression that honours the man who helped define the Midleton house style. Released in 2011 and named after long-serving Master Distiller Barry Crockett, this whiskey blends tradition and innovation in every drop. It’s crafted at Midleton Distillery in County Cork, the historic home of Single Pot Still, a uniquely Irish whiskey style made from malted and unmalted barley and triple distilled for a rich, creamy texture.
This bottling marries pot still whiskeys matured exclusively in American bourbon barrels with a subtle inclusion of distillate aged in unseasoned American oak. The result is refined yet vibrant: citrus, spice, green orchard fruits, and toasted oak delivered with grace and detail. It’s no surprise this whiskey has earned over 30 international awards and remains one of the most collectible releases in Irish whiskey.
Offered at 46% ABV and presented in a bespoke wooden box, Barry Crockett Legacy is a masterclass in balance and expression. Sip it neat to appreciate the full arc of flavour and its long, elegant finish. One for the connoisseurs.

Apple and ripe pear meld with butterscotch and a touch of banana on the long finish. Meant for savoring straight up.
Lemon and lime zest, kumquat, and blood orange entwine around vanilla, nutmeg, and soft, drying tannins… wins unanimously and easily on points.
Midleton's heritage stretches back to the 19th century, with Master Distiller Emeritus Barry Crockett famously likening the craft of making fine whiskey to conducting an orchestra—each note carefully harmonized to create a symphonic masterpiece. This tradition has been carried forward by Kevin O'Gorman, whose passion and expertise continue to uphold Midleton’s reputation as one of the finest Irish whiskeys.
In the early 1900s, Irish whiskey faced near collapse, beset by challenges from the Irish War of Independence and U.S. Prohibition. Despite these setbacks, Midleton persevered, spearheading a new era in Irish whiskey. Midleton Very Rare emerged as a beacon of quality, upheld by the vision and craftsmanship of three master distillers: Barry Crockett, Brian Nation, and now Kevin O’Gorman.
Midleton Very Rare owes its exceptional quality to the craftsmanship and dedication of its master distillers. Barry Crockett laid the foundation of excellence with meticulous cask selection and a focus on quality, establishing a tradition that remains at the heart of Midleton today. Brian Nation followed, blending tradition with innovation to elevate the brand during his tenure from 2013 to 2020. Kevin O'Gorman, a member of the team since 1998, has continued to push the boundaries of maturation techniques, sourcing the finest casks from around the globe to refine the unique character of each vintage. Together, these three masters have ensured that Midleton Very Rare remains a symbol of unparalleled quality and innovation in Irish whiskey.
Vanilla, toasted oak and lime lead with notes of green berries, pear and a hint of green sweet pepper.
Fresh citrus and mandarin sweetness combine with soft pepper, cinnamon, vanilla and seasoned oak.
Flavours taper gently to a clean, refined oak-driven close.
