Overview: Yellow Spot 12 Year Irish Whiskey is a distinguished expression of the rich heritage and craftsmanship of Irish whiskey production. This single pot still whiskey is known for its complexity, character, and smoothness, making it a favorite among whiskey enthusiasts.

Production: Yellow Spot is meticulously crafted using traditional methods that have been perfected over generations:

  1. Ingredients: The whiskey is made from a combination of malted and unmalted barley, along with a small proportion of other grains. The use of both malted and unmalted barley is a hallmark of Irish single pot still whiskey.

  2. Triple Distillation: The spirit is triple-distilled in traditional copper pot stills, which is a key step in achieving the whiskey's smooth and refined character.

  3. Aging: Yellow Spot is aged for a minimum of 12 years in a selection of oak casks, including ex-bourbon, sherry, and Malaga wine casks. This extended maturation allows for the development of complex flavors and a rich, mellow profile.

  4. Bottling Strength: The whiskey is bottled at a respectable 46% ABV, ensuring that its flavors are presented without excessive dilution.

Tasting Notes: Yellow Spot 12 Year Irish Whiskey offers a captivating array of aromas and flavors:

  • Appearance: Rich, amber gold with a warm, inviting glow.

  • Aroma: The nose is an enticing blend of tropical fruits, citrus, and orchard apples, with hints of spice, vanilla, and toasted oak.

  • Palate: On the palate, Yellow Spot delivers a harmonious mix of flavors. You'll experience luscious notes of mango, pineapple, apricot, and red berries, complemented by a gentle spice and nuttiness. There's also a subtle sweetness reminiscent of honey and toffee.

  • Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, with the fruity and nutty notes gradually giving way to oak spices, leaving a warm, velvety sensation.

Packaging: Yellow Spot 12 Year Irish Whiskey is presented in an elegant, green bottle with a label featuring a yellow spot, which symbolizes the whiskey's age. The packaging exudes a sense of Irish tradition and craftsmanship.

Serving: This single pot still Irish whiskey is best enjoyed in a Glencairn or similar whisky glass. It can be enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to unlock its full spectrum of flavors. Yellow Spot is often savored as a sipping whiskey, ideally sipped slowly to appreciate its complexity.

Conclusion: Yellow Spot 12 Year Irish Whiskey is a testament to the excellence of Irish whiskey production. Its unique combination of fruity, nutty, and spicy notes, along with its extended aging, make it a delightful choice for those seeking a premium and well-rounded Irish whiskey.
