Experience the perfect marriage of Irish tradition and Californian flair with the Green Spot Chateau Montelena Single Pot Irish Whiskey. This exceptional spirit hails from the legendary cellars of Mitchell & Son, a name synonymous with premium Irish whiskey and a reputation that spans over two centuries of expertise.
The allure of Green Spot Chateau Montelena begins with its maturation journey. Initially aged in traditional sherry and bourbon casks, this whiskey undergoes a second maturation, finished for 12 months in French oak Zinfandel wine casks sourced from the esteemed Chateau Montelena in Napa Valley, California. This unique maturation process lends a thrilling new depth to this already acclaimed Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey.
The nose introduces a captivating bouquet of pomegranate, cranberry, and maraschino cherry, mingling with the classic Green Spot profiles of red apples and ripe pears. Notes of crisp oak and the velvety sweetness of vanilla, white chocolate, and marshmallow lend a harmonious balance, showcasing the exquisite influence of the wine cask finish.
The palate presents a delightful interplay of dry and sweet, the wine cask influence manifesting as a dry note in the mouth-coating. The typical Pot Still spices gradually give way to zesty citrus, ripe orchard fruits and red berries. Finishing touches of marzipan and toasted oak contribute to an increasingly complex flavour profile. The finish is a beautiful blend of classic pot still spice flavours harmonising with a delicate wine influence.
