The Spot family of Irish whiskeysGreen expression had been around for some time, Yellow returned in 2012 and the Red was reintroduced back in 2018 for the first time since the mid-1960s. That left only Blue Spot, which we first took notice of its potential return to the fold earlier this year. Now it has officially been brought back.

Blue Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

  • Nose: A light mix of pineapple, kiwi, green banana and lime zest followed by Pot Still spices, baked apple, hazelnut and toasted wood.
  • Taste: A smooth mouthfeel with a subtle mix of fruit, a hint of clove oil and cracked black pepper corns. Sweet spices, vanilla and cinnamon add to the wood’s nutty contribution.
  • Finish: A lasting and distinctly palatable balance of exotic fruits and spices.
