These incredible stills could hold around 30,000 gallons of liquid, that's over 135,000 litres. In 1975, the distillery shut to become a visitor centre and production moved to a modern building next door, the logically-named New Midleton Distillery. Chapter Three in the collection is a single pot still Irish whiskey taken from two casks, an ex-sherry butt, and an ex-bourbon barrel, both of which were distilled in 1973. Only 97 bottles have been produced. Each one comes in an individually-numbered Waterford crystal decanter and burr elm cabinet crafted by Irish designer John Galvin, accompanied by a 50ml miniature, so that you can give the whisky a try without opening the full-sized decanter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMidleton 47 Year Old - Very Rare Silent Distillery Collection Chapter Three Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pageCopy\" id=\"ContentPlaceHolder1_ctl00_ctl02_TastingNoteBox_ctl00_noseTastingNote\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe first impression is a rich medley of forest fruits.

The buildings of the Midleton distillery began life rather abstemiously; used as a wool mill in the very late eighteenth century. Leased by Marcus Lynch, the buildings were sold to the government, who subsequently sold them to the Archbishop of Cashel in 1823 for the sum of £1,750. The Archbishop died later that year and the buildings were inherited by Lord Midleton. It was the three brothers Murphy who converted the mill into a distillery in 1825. They had acquired the buildings for £4,000. Stills were installed, including the world’s largest still with a capacity of 31,618 gallons. The distillery produced a range of brands and in 1966 the company joined John Powers and John Jameson to form the Irish Distillers Group and a new distillery was built at Midleton to produce all of their brands. This new distillery now has a capacity of 60m litres, following a large expansion project in 2013.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-28T17:36:01-04:00","created_at":"2023-03-17T14:20:31-04:00","vendor":"ConciergeUK","type":"Whiskey","tags":["ATOMCC23","NK1703","Proof_100 - 125 (50 - 62.5% ABV)","Source_MasterOfMalt0323","Type_Whiskey"],"price":6086095,"price_min":6086095,"price_max":6086095,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42853999542410,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Midleton 47 Year Old - Very Rare Silent Distillery Collection Chapter Three","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":6086095,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/32_7346a7a7-fc2f-49d4-a416-30b5e643b177.jpg?v=1679077262"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/32_7346a7a7-fc2f-49d4-a416-30b5e643b177.jpg?v=1679077262","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Midleton 47 Year Old - Very Rare Silent Distillery Collection Chapter Three at CaskCartel.com","id":24427833589898,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.988,"height":607,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/32_7346a7a7-fc2f-49d4-a416-30b5e643b177.jpg?v=1679077262"},"aspect_ratio":0.988,"height":607,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/32_7346a7a7-fc2f-49d4-a416-30b5e643b177.jpg?v=1679077262","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhiskey: Midleton 47 Year Old - Very Rare Silent Distillery Collection Chapter Three\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOpens with a luxuriously rich and full-bodied texture accompanied by notes of freshly brewed dark roasted coffee, caramelised fruits, crushed pistachio and hazelnut.
