Brian Nation was the head distiller at Midleton Distillery and this has been created by him to highlight the underlying quality of the spirit at the distillery. According to Irish Distillers this 'Delivers a smooth mouthfeel and gentle notes of apricot, cinnamon and melon, The Distiller’s Safe pays respect to the character of the distillate. Long before barrels make their mark, a pot still has the first say.'Apparently this is the youngest of the three whiskeys in the Whiskey Makers Series and is entirely aged in ex-Bourbon barrels.
