Yellow Spot is a renowned Irish whiskey brand, part of the historic "Spot" family of whiskies produced by Mitchell & Son, a wine merchant company based in Dublin, Ireland. The brand has a rich heritage that dates back to the early 1900s when Mitchell & Son began maturing whiskey in their wine cellars in Dublin. The name "Yellow Spot" originally referred to the practice of marking aged casks with spots of colored paint to indicate the age of the whiskey. For example, Blue Spot was aged for 7 years, Green Spot for 10 years, and Yellow Spot for 12 years.
Yellow Spot Irish Whisky offers a distinctive and delightful experience that combines traditional Irish whiskey-making craftsmanship with a rich tapestry of flavors influenced by its unique cask maturation process.
Nose:
Aromatic and complex, featuring notes of lemon cheesecake, butterscotch, and barley with hints of butter and cinnamon. Additional aromas include mown hay, cracked black pepper, red bell peppers, nutmeg, clove oil, green tea, and the sweet fragrances of honey and peaches from Malaga casks.
Palate:
A rich and velvety texture that balances sweet flavors of honey with the robustness of pot still spices. This is complemented by tastes of fresh coffee, creamy milk chocolate, and crème brûlée, along with notes of red apples and toasted oak.
Finish:
The whiskey concludes with a sophisticated and complex finish, marked by enduring sweetness and layers of red grape and dry barley.
Awards:
Gold awards at the Irish Whiskey Masters in 2021 and the Irish Whiskey Awards in 2018.
