Midleton

[Fairwaysbar]

Looking to buy a thirty year old bottle of midleton can anybody tell me if there was three hundred bottles made and what is a good price to pay for a bottle

[IrishWhiskeyChaser]

There was at least 3 Midleton 30yos bottled.

One was from a 1969 cask released in time for the Millennium, I think. Not sure how many bottled of this was released.

One was single release of 1973 whiskey from at least 2 casks of which I know cask No 41421 & No 41422 which is a release of 1/800.

What would be a good price ... god only knows. Fairly rare and the reseller retail price in Celtic Whiskey Shop is €2,500

See here

So you'll have to find it on the open market to get it for less than that but they are hard to come by ...

Ally has the 1969 there too. The price is €2750 to my knowledge. I guess it's rare now. I recall them getting less than €1000 a few years back.
The 1973 is a special creature but the price is still crazy although it was never cheap. I have a copy of a PDF from Irish Distillers from April 2008 where it was priced at €4000. It also had the 20th Anniversary Midleton for just under €5000.

From the Midleton 1969 there is one cask and 300 bottles out of it. Cask number is 1831/56

"This single pot still whiskey was sold at various ages ranging from seven to fifteen years old."

Maybe something like this in old day`s

Yes, I like the old Midleton labels ... nice and understated.
