Renowned Irish whiskey brand Spot Whiskey celebrates 100 years of Green Spot with a limited-edition 10-year-old expression, crafted at Midleton Distillery, the world’s most awarded international distillery*. To mark this milestone, the brand has partnered with colour experts YesColours to create a bespoke Green Spot paint shade.
The Green Spot 100 Year Anniversary Limited Edition 10-Year-Old pays homage to the traditional Green Spot launched in 1925 by Mitchell & Son. For decades, the Mitchell family sent empty wine, sherry and port casks to be filled at the Jameson Distillery, before returning them to their Dublin cellars for maturation.
Each cask was marked with a daub of paint to indicate its age – green for a 10-year-old whiskey
In 1925, this simple marking practice inspired the name Green Spot, a tradition that has endured for a century, now honoured with a bespoke anniversary liquid crafted as a nod to that original 10-year-old age statement.
This special anniversary release, bottled at 46% ABV, offers an elevated flavour experience adding depth and complexity to celebrate a century of whiskey craft. It opens with hints of floral honey, toffee, and autumnal fruit notes, followed by warming layers of spice, vanilla, and dried fruits flavours, finished with a rich, lingering balance of orchard fruits notes and pot still character.
