House Review
Intro:
Midleton Barry Crockett Legacy is a high end, moderately limited release from the distillery. It features a high but not absurd pricetag.
Nose:
Honey, fresh baked bread. Vanilla, light pepper. Some oak, not a ton. Lighter.
Taste:
Scotchy, lightly ashy. Honey, toffee, pear, apple, vanilla bean. Caramel and caramel apple.
Finish:
Apples, pears, light ash, pepper, nice oak structure.
Overall:
Nothing tremendous but very solid. Delightfully complex, though on the lighter side of an oaky profile.
