Green Spot Château Léoville Barton Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Today, Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey continues to be crafted in the heart of Ireland. "Pot Still Whiskeys define the traditional flavor character of Irish whiskey and we have seen a renewed interest and growth in the category over the last few years," says Brian Nation, the master distiller at Midleton Distillery, which makes Green Spot Whiskey. 

Green Spot Château Léoville Barton Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is made from malted and unmalted barley, which are milled and mashed before being distilled through a traditional pot still. After an initial aging in ex-bourbon (75%) and ex- sherry (25%) casks for approximately eight to nine years, Green Spot Château Léoville Barton Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is finished for 12 to 24 months in casks that previously contained Bordeaux wine from Château Léoville Barton. In addition to being very highly-regarded, the Barton house is unique in that it’s named after famous Irish winemaker Thomas Barton, whose descendants still run Château Léoville Barton today.

Tasting Notes

Green Spot Château Léoville Barton Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey has an aroma of wild raspberries, French oak, gingerbread and banana that gives way to notes of vanilla, green apple, lemon peel, honey and marshmallow on the palate. The finish is smooth with a pleasant chewiness, with hints of cereal, wine and Christmas spice.
