Midleton

Midleton sits in County Cork's Owenacurra River valley, 22 kilometers east of Cork city along the N25. The town serves as a handy stop for drivers heading to Kerry destinations like Killarney and Tralee, with good rail links back to Cork for commuters. It's become a proper destination for whiskey lovers, with the Jameson Distillery complex producing some of Ireland's finest drops, including Midleton Very Rare. The Saturday farmers' market pulls food enthusiasts from across East Cork for local cheeses and artisan goods. The old distillery houses the world's largest pot still at 31,618 gallons capacity.
