Mitchell & Son Gold Spot 9 year old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is one of the latest jewels in the crown of the core Spot Whiskey range from Irish Distillers. A product of Midleton Distillery on behalf of the iconic Mitchell & Son brand, this highly anticipated 2022 release was produced in an estimated 36,000 bottles and celebrates the 135th anniversary of the partnership of Mitchell & Son and their beginnings in the whisky industry. Gold Spot 9 Year is matured for a minimum of 9 years in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and ex-sherry butts along with select ex-Bordeaux red wine casks and ex-Port Pipes. This sublime and complex marriage envokes a decadence truly worthy of such a profound bottling. Finished to 51.4% ABV, the Gold Spot 9 Years is one of four expressions in the Spot Whiskey silo and offers aromatic notes of sweet peaches and slivers of apricots in caramel, honey, and cinnamon. The palate is warm with swirls of pepper, island fruits, and delicate peach pastries drizzled in caramel.
