Description

Yellow Spot 12 Year Old Irish Whiskey (70cl / 46%) is an exquisite single pot still expression from Midleton Distillery, revived from a storied heritage. Crafted with malted and unmalted barley, it undergoes triple maturation for twelve years across ex-bourbon barrels, sherry butts, and rare Malaga wine casks, yielding a radiant golden hue and profound complexity. The nose entices with fragrant mown hay, cracked black pepper, nutmeg whispers, ripe honeyed peaches, green tea leaves, and subtle vanilla pod. On the palate, velvety textures unfold: pot still spices dance with crème brûlée richness, fresh espresso, red apple crispness, creamy milk chocolate, toasted oak, and dried orchard fruits. Lingering finish reveals sweet red grape, barley sugars, gentle tannins, and faint floral heather honey. Unchillfiltered and non-chill chilled, it captivates neat, over ice, or in a Rob Roy. A double gold medalist at international awards, embodying Irish whiskey’s elegant spice and finesse.
