While Green Spot is often described as tasting like green apples, Yellow Spot is more in character with juicy red apples: richer, more complex, and with an exotic sweetness that sets it apart. Its existence owes something to a remarkable piece of luck: if it were not for the chance discovery of an old intact bottle of Yellow Spot in the Little Museum of Dublin, this delicious bottling might never have been re-released.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than being simply a finished whiskey, Yellow Spot is special in that it contains whiskey matured for a full 12 years across three oak cask types: American bourbon barrels, Spanish sherry butts, and uniquely, Spanish Malaga casks. The Malaga cask brings an exotic sweet note that makes this a truly distinctive taste experience. Bottled at 46% ABV, it has been recognised as one of the world's finest Irish whiskeys, earning 99 points and the Chairman's Trophy at the Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDistillery and Production\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMidleton Distillery, County Cork, Ireland.
