Origin |
Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is inspired by Mitchell & Son’s old-fashioned method of marking ageing barrels of whisky in their cellars. It is a no-age statement Irish Whiskey finished in ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks. Green Spot and Yellow Spot whiskies are both available to buy at Fareham Wine Cellar.
Mitchell & Son was established in 1805 at 10 Grafton Street, Dublin and began their life as a confectionery, wine, and fortified wine business. The company, founded by the Mitchell family, expanded into the Irish whiskey trade, which was growing fast in Dublin the 19th century. Their approach to whiskey ageing led to the creation of the iconic “Spot” whiskey range, a tradition that continues to this day. The family developed the “spot” system for tracking the ageing of their whiskey casks in their cellars at Grafton Street where they would mark the casks with different coloured paint spots to indicate the intended maturation period:
Today’s Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is a modern continuation of Mitchell & Son’s legacy. It is produced by Irish Distillers at the Midleton Distillery in County Cork. It is a no-age-statement (NAS) whiskey crafted from a blend of single pot still whiskies which are aged between 7 and 10 years.
Nose: Fresh aromatic oils and spices with orchard fruits and barley on a background of toasted wood.
Taste: Full spicy body. A hint of cloves along with the fruity sweetness of green apples, rounded off with toasted oak. Followed by lingering flavours of spices and barley.
