Join Mitchelstown Native Kevin O’Gorman, Master Distiller at
Midleton Distillery for an introduction to
the Single Pot Still Whiskeys of Midleton.
Pot Still Irish Whiskey is a style of whiskey which is unique to Ireland. Midleton produces an
incredible range of Single Pot Still Whiskeys including Redbreast, Green Spot, Powers John's lane
and Midleton Barry Crockett legacy.
Hosted virtually from the Midleton Distillery on Friday March 12 at 7-30pm sharp, this tasting
experience offers plenty of opportunity for conversation, questions, note taking and a bit of music
as well. Best of all, you get to nose, sample & enjoy this diverse flavour spectrum from the comfort
of your home. We also have a very special sample of Midleton Very Rare which will be the highlight
of the evening.
