Blue Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey Review aged 7 years Cask Strength 117.4 Proof

Blue Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey Review aged 7 years Cask Strength 117.4 Proof

Blue Spot’s name was derived from the Mitchell’s practice of marking their maturing casks of whiskey with a mark or daub of coloured paint to determine the age potential of the whiskey. Blue Spot was a 7 year old whiskey, Green Spot (10 year old), Yellow Spot (12 Year Old) and Red Spot (15 year old). As a colourful history would have it, this revered Blue Spot remained underground until now and its introduction reunites the historical Spot Family for the first time in over 56 years.
