Yellow Spot 12 years
Yellow Spot 12 Years is one of the most respected Irish whiskeys, from the iconic Spot Whiskey series, produced by Midleton Distillery in partnership with the Mitchell & Son family. This whiskey offers a fine example of traditional Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey and is loved for its complexity and rich flavour.
Tasting note
Nose
The nose offers an elegant blend of sweet aromas, including ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot, along with toffee, vanilla, and a touch of spices like nutmeg and cinnamon. You can also detect the influence of the sherry and Malaga casks through the scent of sultanas, dried apricots and lightly toasted oak
Taste
On the palate, you taste a rich, full flavour experience with layers of sweet fruit, honey, and caramel. The influence of the Malaga casks emerges with a soft, almost creamy sweetness, while the pot still whiskey also provides a slight spiciness and a creamy texture. There are also notes of stewed fruit, vanilla and a hint of chocolate.
Finish
The finish is long, sweet and warming, with lingering notes of honey, dried fruit, oak and a hint of spice. It is a soft, velvety finish that reflects the rich influences of the three types of casks.
More information
The Mitchell family: The Mitchell family began buying casks from Midleton Distillery in the late 1800s to age in their own wine cellars in Dublin. They used coloured dots to mark the age of the whiskeys. This gave rise to the famous ‘Spot’ whiskeys: Green Spot (7-10 years), Yellow Spot (12 years), and Red Spot (15 years).
