Red Spot 15 Years Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Aged a minimum of 15 years, Red Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey has made its return to the realm of Irish whiskey after a half-century. This reincarnated version is a whiskey that’s done in the triple distilled, single pot still style and aged a minimum of 15 years in a combination of casks pre-seasoned with Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry Marsala fortified wine. For those who always wondered on the use of the word Spot, it is derived from Mitchell’s practice of marking their maturing casks of whiskey with a dab of colored paint to determine the potential of the whiskey; with a Blue Spot, Green Spot, Yellow Spot or Red Spot indicating 7, 10, 12 or 15 years respectively.

• Aroma: Pot still spices with rich cooked fruit, baked apple, mango black cherry. Hazelnut and a touch of new leather fused with toasted American oak
• Taste: A mix of ripe fruit sweetness from the Marsala seasoned wine casks. While the fruit remains, sweet red pepper and cracked black pepper add some spiciness, finished by notes of American oak and barley
• Finish: An extra long infusion of fruits and spices
