This whiskey was distilled and laid down in Midleton Distillery in October, 1997. As is the age of old tradition of crafting Irish Pot Still Whiskey in Midleton, this whiskey has been distilled in large copper pot stills from a mash of both Malted and Unmalted Irish barley. The distillate, one of the numerous pot still distillate styles produced at the Midleton Distillery, is categorised as one of the lighter variants. This lighter Pot Still style allows the subtleties of both the distillate and its maturation to be fully appreciated. In creating this edition of Midleton Single Pot Still Whiskey, one first fill American bourbon barrel was selected from Midleton Warehouse No. M12A by the Master Distiller. The whiskey was filtered to remove wood char prior to being bottled at cask strenght – 59.5% ABV. No chill filtration was used.

Few people are born into a job and fewer still can say that they were born where they work. Master Distiller, Barry Crockett has both distinctions. Born in the Distiller`s Cottage that sits on the grounds of the Midleton Distillery, Barry Crockett has been immersed in the art ofwhiskey distilling for almost 50 years. As a young apprentice, Barry learned his craft from his father and Midleton Master Distiller, Max Crockett, eventually succeeding him as Master Distiller in 1981. The modern day Midleton whiskey house style evolved under the stewardship of the Crocketts, and achived notoriety through the annual vintage release of the Midleton Very Rare blend and the limited releases of Midleton Single Pot Still Whiskey. The style is characterised by elegant and fragrant distillates and the exclusive use of American bourbon barrels in their maturation. Barry Crockett Legacy is the first ongoing bottling of a Single Pot Still Whiskey from the Midleton brand and is fitting tribute to the legacy of the man, who more than anyone else, has defined the exquisite Midleton style. The whiskey represents Barry Crockett`s personal selection of fine and elegant whiskeys which have been distilled and laid down over the past 22 years. Using a combination of different Pot Still distillates, Barry Crockett has assembled a whiskey of remarkable complexity and finesse. The whiskey uses mainly the highest quality first fill bourbon barrels with a subtle contribution of a particular Pot Still distillate which has spent over 18 years maturing in unseasoned American oak barrels.

In 1805, the Mitchell merchant family commenced trading at 10 Grafton St in the heart of Dublin city as purveyors of confectionery, wines and fortified wines. In time, the family entered the whiskey bonding business and sold a range of whiskeys under their `Spot` brand name. This rather peculiar name originated from their practice of marking casks of different ages with a daub or spot of coloured paint with each colour representing a particular age. Inspired by the original Yellow Spot, this Single Pot Still Whiskey has been matured for not less than 12 years in a combination of American bourbon, Spanish sherry and Spanish Malaga casks. Drawing from the Mitchell family tradition of importing fortified wines, full term maturation in ex Malaga casks contributes exotic sweet characteristics to the whiskey.[su_table responsive="yes" alternate="yes" fixed="no" class=""]
