About the distillery
The Midleton distilleries complex is situated in Midleton, County Cork, Ireland. It is owned by Pernod Ricard. Located alongside is the Old Midleton Distillery which was established in the early 17th century.
Midleton is one of the most modern distilleries in the world and has its production areas linked via fibre-optic networks. The Midleton factory, with a production capacity of 64 million litres per annum, is the largest in Ireland. The distillery boasts three 75,000 litre pot stills, and three column, which are used in combinations of three to produce different types of whiskey.
Other Information
This fantastically rare and sought after bottle of Irish single malt was distilled in 1973 at the Old Midleton Distillery before its closure in 1975. Laid down by the legendary master distiller Max Crockett, it was drawn from two casks; an ex-sherry butt and an ex-bourbon barrel.
Presented in an attractive Waterford Crystal Decanter, the bottle is then housed in a presentation box made from burr elm crafted by Irish designer John Galvin. It is also accompanied by a 5cl miniature of the release.
Just 97 of these decanters were produced.
