Two casks were selected, one a single pot still cask from 1984 and the other a single grain from 1981.

Apparently the Midleton distillery had a massive clearout of old casks during the 1980s when they moved onto a stricter wood selection and cask management scheme. Therefore barrels from this era are incredibly rare and unlikely to crop up again. Great care went into the high-end packaging and presentation.
