Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

  • Tasting notes by Billy A

    • Nose

      Lemon cheesecake, (yellow) Jelly Babies, butterscotch, barley, butter and cinnamon.

    • Palate

      Lots of grain, starting sweet and slowly turning spicy and gently sour. With that comes buttered toast, layered with grape jam, nutmeg, clove, lemon zest and fruit gums, with spicy liquorice root sat at the back.

    • Finish

      Apple skin turning sweeter, through fresh apple to stewed and spicy compote. It ends at Jolly Ranchers, with a touch of spicy rye bread.

    • Comment

      Classically fruity pot-still whiskey, with some grape-sweetness behind the more tropical and orchard fruits. Well-balanced spice and citrus notes.

  • Tasting Notes by Stuart P

    • Nose

      Pronounced aromas of fruit, barley and toffee – this isn’t shy.

    • Palate

      Well-balanced notes of juicy, appley fruit and sweet grains and barley, seasoned with toast and spice. Very appealing and very easy to drink.

    • Finish

      The sweet spice persists after the soft fruit disappears.

  • From The Producer

    • Nose

      Mown hay and cracked black pepper. Red bell peppers, nutmeg, clove oil and green tea. Sweet honey & peaches from the Malaga casks

    • Palate

      Honey sweetness with pot still spices. Flavours of fresh coffee, creamy milk chocolate and Crème Brûlée. Notes of red apples and toasted oak. Its finish is sophisticated and complex with a sweetness throughout, followed by a mix of red grape and dry barley upon exit

    Bob B,

    Buttery smooth with a subtle bite. Really enjoying this Father's Day gift.

    Atticus,

    beautifully balanced with an impressive fruitiness, so smooth that adding water would be to discredit the distiller's efforts in producing an exemplary pot still whiskey!

    Whiskyman18,

    Excellent Irish whiskey - smooth and with lots of pot still character. Definitely one to keep in any Irish whiskey library. Hard to find fault with any of the 'spot' whiskies. Hopefully we won't have to wait too much longer for a Blue Spot.
