Midleton Master Distillers 1973 Cask numbers.

[Good Whiskey Hunting]

I've seen that the Midleton Master Distiller's come from 2 casks ,41421 and 41422 on various sites but always assumed it was a mistake, because mine comes from cask number 41423.

I checked Adrian's site and he has a photo from 41422

I'll attach a picture of mine below. I came across this on the net, it appears to be from cask 41421

and this on is from Midleton and it too appears to be bottle 260 from 41421

the bottle numbers are confusing too, the one above appears to be in the 200's
IrishWhiskeyChaser's photo is 078 and mine is 230.

I would have though they have 1- 400 from one and 401-800 from the other.

Am I mistaken that there's more than 2 casks?

Given they are cask strength, 266 bottles per cask would tally with the release of cask #41421 cask #41422 & cask #41423

Question is can we find a higher bottle no than 266?

Cask #41421 = bottle #279 on http://www.whiskybase.com
Cask #41422 = bottle #078
Cask #41423 = bottle #210 on http://www.homeofwhisky.blogspot.com
bottle #269 for good whiskey hunting

I'd mentioned to whiskybase.com that my bottle was from cask 41423 and noticed it is now included.

I'll check around different sites and see if I an idea what sequence came from which cask.
Here's another picture of that one Cask #41421 = bottle #279 I found.

this is also from 41423 = #105

and just to trough another spanner in the works, this is bottle #025 from cask 41423. I can't figure out what way they may go now.
