Yellow Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whishey, 70 cl

Product Information

In May 2012, Mitchell & Son re-introduced the Yellow Spot variant based on information in company archives. [2] Bottling of Yellow Spot had previously ceased in the 1950s, but information in original company journals and ledgers allowed Mitchell & Son to determine the original Yellow Spot was a blend of 12-year-old pot still whiskeys that were matured in a combination of Malaga wine casks (which impart a slightly sweet taste), [2] bourbon barrels, and sherry butts. [2] Nose: Complex, deep and layered. As well as the ever present barley and malted barley, baking spices are much more present. It is as if all of the fruit and berries from the other expressions have melded together to tell the complete story. The initial hit and the high alcohol is noted, but not unpleasant.

Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products. Modern Green Spot is slightly younger than the original. Previously a 10-year-old whiskey, it is now a non-age statement whiskey, made from a blend of 7-10-year-old single pot still whiskeys [2] that have matured in a combination of new and refill bourbon casks and sherry casks. [2] Four generations later, Mitchell & Son is still in the wine and spirits business under the stewardship of Jonathan Mitchell and his son Robert. Irish Distillers now owns the Yelllow and Green Spot brands but Mitchell & Son retain the sole rights to market the whiskey in Ireland.

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]Appearance: Pale and golden in color. Really catches the light as it is swirled in the glass and clings to the sides as it slowly forms legs that cling to the side.
