| TASTING NOTE: Green Spot is that rarest of beasts, a surviving Irish pure pot still whiskey ... Only a limited number of bottles are produced each year, making Green Spot one of the more elusive whiskeys on the market, but it is very definitely worth seeking out. The nose is sweet, with nougat and maraschino cherries, plus a contrasting bite of pepper and rye. Coconut and cedar when water is added. Smooth, oily and insinuating in the mouth, with a pleasingly spicy cereal and citric edge ... At its best undiluted. Score: 4.5 Stars (out of 5) (Gavin D. Smith & Tom Cannavan, www.whisky-pages.com, Undated) |
