Yellow Spot 12 Year Old

We will be tasting Yellow Spot 12 Year for our third Irish Whiskey of the week.

Previously, we reviewed the Green Spot Montelena Cask Finished whiskey. At its core, the Green Spot is a 7-10 year old expression that is aged in ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. The Yellow Spot has a similar core, except aged for at least 12 years, with Malaga casks added to the maturation process in addition to the ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks.

Teeling Single Pot Still vs. Teeling Small Batch

Next up for St. Patty’s Week is Teeling Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey.

We reviewed Teeling Small Batch a while back so now we will set our sights (tastes?) on another one of Teeling’s whiskeys, the Single Pot Still. This whiskey is made from 50% unmalted spring barley and 50% malted barley, which was then tripled distilled and aged in a variety of casks including ex-bourbon barrels, virgin American Oak barrels (new barrels), and sherry casks. This particular bottle was bottled in September of 2019.
