Yellow Spot is a 12 year old single pot still whiskey from Midleton Distillery in County Cork. It is made for Mitchell & Son, the Dublin merchants who began bonding whiskey in 1887. They marked casks with a dab of paint to show how long each would age. Yellow meant twelve years.
Malted and unmalted barley is triple distilled in copper pot stills. The spirit then matures in American bourbon barrels, Spanish sherry butts and Spanish Malaga casks. The Malaga wood adds a sweet, honeyed side.
On the nose you get mown hay, cracked black pepper and red bell pepper. Nutmeg, clove oil and green tea follow, with honey and peach. The palate opens with honey and pot still spice. Fresh coffee, milk chocolate, crème brûlée, red apple and toasted oak come next.
The finish stays sweet before red grape and dry barley close it out. In 2017 it earned 99 points and the Chairman’s Trophy at the Ultimate Spirits Challenge. That year it also took Gold at the International Spirits Challenge and Silver at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Pour it neat, add one cube of ice, or use it in an Old Fashioned. Dark chocolate and roasted nuts sit nicely beside it. If you enjoy classic Irish whiskey with extra richness, this bottle deserves a spot on your shelf.
