We are excited to announce our May mid-month event will be a Member's Special Tasting Series: Green Spot Single Casks in the Spotlight. It has taken quite an effort over the last year for Brian to secure bottles of the most recent five editions of these single casks and we're delighted that we can open them for our members to experience and enjoy a superb line up.
We're delighted that Fionnán O'Connor, Cask Committee member will be joined by Rowan Lacey, Prestige Whiskey Brand Ambassador, Irish Distillers Pernod Ricard together with Robert Mitchell, Mitchell & Son for this very special tasting allowing us to compare and contrast these superb single casks samples (c. 17 ml each) side by side;
- The Palace Bar, Dublin Green Spot Single Cask #283863 11 Year Old 59.5%
- The Whisky Exchange Green Spot Single Cask #25850 12 Year Old 59%
- Revolution Whiskey Bar, Waterford Green Spot Single Cask #7740 13 Year Old 59.6%
- Mitchell & Son Green Spot Single Cask #105181 13 Year Old 60.7%
- The Whisky Exchange Green Spot Single Cask #50776 26 Year Old 55.7%
Everyone who signs up will also be treated to a bonus 50ml miniature of the Green Spot core expression (40%) Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, with thanks to Irish Distillers Pernod Ricard for providing this expression for us.
We would also like to thank The Palace Bar & Revolution Whiskey Bar for their support sourcing bottles and assisting us to add their expressions to the line-up.
