About this deal

Using distillate obtained from Jameson's nearby Bow Street Distillery, Mitchell & Son matured whiskey in a mix of casks that had been used to hold both dark and light sherries in their cellars under Fitzwilliam Lane in Dublin. [2] For the first five years of maturation, half of the whiskey was aged in casks that had previously held Oloroso and other darker sherries, with the other half aged in casks that had held lighter finos. [2] This combination prevented the darker wines from overpowering the whiskey. [1] After five years, whiskeys from the respective light and dark sherry casks were then vatted together and allowed to mature for an additional five years in neutral oak. [1] Yellow Spot is a Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey. Irish single pot still whiskey doesn’t mean it’s single distilled, but that it’s triple distilled in traditional copper pot stills within a SINGLE distillery. Unlike Green Spot, which didn’t carry an age statement, Yellow Spot is a 12 year old whiskey which was aged in a combination of American ex-bourbon barrels, Spanish sherry, and Spanish Malaga casks.

Overall: The Malaga effect on this whisky is very similar to the port finish on Quinta Ruban – lots of red fruits and candy. In this case, it (or the sherry) covers up the essential grain flavors that make single pot still such a fascinating category. While Redbreast 12 (which is far cheaper) showcases the nuts and coconut, Yellow Spot (while very tasty and impeccably composed) showcases the wine. Even so, Yellow Spot does not disappoint.

Palate: Much like a good story or a great whiskey, the beginning, middle, and end should all be distinctive but seamlessly blend into one another. Not only that, you should still be thinking about and contemplating its meaning even after you have finished. You get the barley, you get the fruit, you get the distinctiveness of the Madeira and the high proof, but it is as if it is telling you its story in a comforting wise voice.

The latest chapter of this saga is the hero’s journey of a return to triumph. While it still has a long way to go to regain the top spot of popularity in the spirit world, Irish whiskey has been among the fastest growing spirits in the world for a number of years now. This resurgence has created a need for new characters to enter the stage, but also many of the old players a time to shine again. The complete Spot Irish whiskey line up (image via Irish Distillers/Pernod Ricard) Tasting Notes: Green Spot Because Green Spot is produced in limited quantities (only 12,000 bottles per year) [5] and was historically mainly sold through Mitchell's & Son's Dublin shop, it was previously difficult to obtain outside of Ireland. However, in recent years, distribution of Green Spot has become more widespread. For instance, it was launched in the United States for the first time in 2014 [5] and is now available in retailers across France. [6] Through various ebb and flows, Irish whiskey was once the most popular spirit in the world. After this zenith, changing tastes, wars, trade embargoes, and prohibition in the United States had forced distilleries to shutter or consolidate to the point of there being only two left producing, and they joined together in 1972.You are responsible for all activities through your account.
