Inexperienced Spot Irish Whiskey is a single pot nonetheless whiskey that’s aged for 7-10 years which might make it a 7 yr whiskey (you all the time use the bottom aged whiskey in a bottle), however Midleton determined to depart it as a No Age Assertion (NAS) whiskey. Which is odd to me as a result of they disclose the 7-10 age vary on their web site. I suppose leaving it as NAS offers them the pliability to drop it all the way down to a 4-7 yr whiskey if shares get low with no new label approval, however possibly i’m being cynical.
To create the splendidly strong aroma and taste that could be a delight to drink from begin to end they began with some single pot nonetheless distillate after which aged it in a mix of ex-bourbon, refill bourbon and ex-sherry casks. All 3 casks, even the refill, lend one thing new and attention-grabbing to the general character. This whiskey is a part of Midelton’s Single Pot Nonetheless whiskey lineup together with Redbreast, MIdleton and Powers and it s a effective effective addition certainly.
