This Month’s Tasting Pack
Heritage, innovation, and unmistakable Irish character — poured into three exceptional whiskeys.
This month’s Tasting Vault selection brings together two iconic Single Pot Still whiskeys and a beautifully finished Single Malt, each showing a different expression of Ireland’s distilling tradition. From bonded heritage to cask-driven depth, this trio is all about flavour, texture, and discovery.
Get your glass ready — let’s dive in.
Green Spot – Single Pot Still – 40% ABV
About the Brand
A true Irish classic, Green Spot is one of Ireland’s last remaining bonded whiskeys — a tradition where independent wine merchants matured and bottled whiskey under their own labels. Today, it’s produced at the world-renowned Midleton Distillery, but it carries the historic DNA of the Mitchell family, who first created the “Spot” range in the late 1800s. Creamy, fruity, and unmistakably Irish, it’s a beloved classic with deep roots in Dublin’s whiskey past.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Ripe orchard fruits, toasted oak, sweet spice
Palate: Honey, green apple, vanilla, nutmeg
Finish: Long and mellow with gentle sweetness and subtle spice
Why We Love It
It’s tradition in a glass — silky, bright, and full of personality. A perfect introduction to the pot still style.
Tyrconnell 10-Year-Old Madeira Cask – Single Malt – 46% ABV
About the Distillery
Tyrconnell is produced at the Cooley Distillery in County Louth — a distillery celebrated for reviving the tradition of independent Irish single malts. Named after a famous champion racehorse, Tyrconnell’s hallmark is its elegance and balance. Their cask-finished series has earned worldwide attention for showcasing how secondary maturation can add sophistication and real flavour depth.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Caramelised sugar, dried apricots, citrus zest
Palate: Silky and full-bodied with honey, toasted almonds, warm spice
Finish: Long and satisfying with oak, fruit, and gentle sweetness
Why We Love It
It showcases the magic of the right cask — enhancing flavour without overwhelming it. Smooth, indulgent, and beautifully expressive.
Redbreast 12-Year-Old – Single Pot Still – 40% ABV
About the Brand
Redbreast is produced at Midleton Distillery and is widely considered the gold standard of Single Pot Still whiskey worldwide. Originally created by the wine merchants Gilbeys, Redbreast’s sherry influence and rich pot still character have made it an icon. The 12-Year-Old is the expression that helped redefine Irish whiskey for a global audience — full-bodied, complex, and unmistakably luxurious.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Dried fruit, roasted nuts, hint of vanilla
Palate: Dark berries, sherry sweetness, warming spice
Finish: Long and lingering with oak, spice, and a touch of chocolate
Why We Love It
It sets the benchmark. Redbreast 12 embodies everything that makes Single Pot Still so special — texture, complexity, and layers of evolving flavour.
