Midleton Very Rare: An Irish Whiskey Fit For A Manor

In 1825, three Murphy brothers purchased an old woolen mills in Midleton in County Cork and converted it into a distillery on the banks of the Dungourney River…a distillery that over the past 200 years has evolved into one of the world’s greatest whiskey distilleries. 9 years later in 1834 and 70 miles away to the north west, construction was also underway in the village of Adare in Co. Limerick as the 2nd earl of Dunraven began converting an old Georgian house on the Maigue River into what has today become one of the world’s greatest manor houses and hotels - Adare Manor. In this episode of Stories and Sips I’ll share the story of how these two great houses - one a whiskey house and the other a house of hospitality have come together to produce something amazing. ---- Stories & Sips exists to introduce current and potential whiskey fans in the United States to the real Ireland and its incredible Irish whiskeys, converting bourbon, scotch and rye drinkers to the often under-appreciated gold that is Irish whiskey. Our vision is for Ireland to become the world leader in whiskey tourism. The Irish whiskey product has reached an enviable level of quality and is earning deserved worldwide attention. The growth in the number of distilleries and visitor centers offers Ireland a unique opportunity to create a whiskey tourism industry that is the envy of whiskey-producing countries around the world. At Stories & Sips, we intend to do our part. We will do this by connecting fans emotionally to Ireland and its whiskeys. Through stories, in-person whiskey tastings and trips to Ireland, we’ll help whiskey fans engage deeply with the people and product of our country so that they become lifelong fans, consumers and evangelists. ---- ► Subscribe to the Stories & Sips YouTube Channel Here:    / @storiesandsips   ---- Born and raised in Cobh, 12 dangerous miles from the Midleton Distillery, Barry has called the United States home since 2007.
