Tasting Notes

  • Tasting Notes by Peter Mulryan

    • Nose

      The breathtaking crackle of pot still whiskey, infused with gentle wintergreen.

    • Taste

      Full bodied with no apologies. Oily linseed cooled by strains of gentle menthol, joined by some spiciness towards the end.

    • Finish

      Dry and sweet and long.

    • Comments

      For those who like a slighly lighter pot still than that found in the older, more sherry influenced Redbreast.

  • Tasting Notes by Jim Murray

    • Nose

      The first thing to strike you is the density of the nose; nothing light and flowery here. The pot still appears older than its eight years thanks to a pleasant dustiness (something similar to old Redbreast), and the influence of the sherry. All this is mixed with a curious menthol sub-stratum. Some evidence of bourbon wood around too, but rather overshadowed by this highly unusual cough-sweet, malty effect.

    • Taste

      Sweet, rich and full bodied from the very start. It quickly fills the mouth with a glorious spiciness. All the time it somehow remains soft, though the tastebuds are constantly tweaked by a harder pot still maltiness. Wonderfully complex and busy.

    • Finish

      Very long, dry and malty to start then sweetens and some late spice adds to all the fun. The very last, dying rays are rather cool on the throat, as if the menthol on the nose has returned.

    • Comments

      This is a tremendous whiskey, sometimes giving a sweet-honey feel more associated with Perthshire malts from Scotland. But the pot still is confident enough to confirm this as Irish with a maturity greater than the age of the whiskey used. If you see it, grab it. It’s too much of a high class one-off to ignore.

  • Tim in So. Cal.,

    Just returned form Ireland last week. I was lucky to be in Cork during Cork Whiskey Way. Sampled 4 types of Whiskey including Green Spot, Red Breast, Powers and Jameson Black Barrel. Though all were good whiskey by their own right, I thoroughly enjoyed Green Spot (That's why I'm searching here). Drink long, live often

  • janet,

    I am not an avid whiskey drinker, but after a young Irish bartender in Galway turned us on to Greenspot I fell in love. Thank God for the Whisky Exchange so I can still get it!

  • Anonymous,

    The unicorn of Irish whiskeys. If you're lucky enough to find it, have one or three. Simply the best!

  • Pat,

    It's the finest Irish I've ever tasted, and I wish it were available in Caifornia, although given the price, perhaps it's better that it's not available.

  • Nick,

    Clearly Nick hasn't had red breast
