Product Description
Their origins rooted in history, two stories of Irish endeavour and enterprise intertwine and together are the inspiration for a special edition whiskey- Green Spot Chateau Montelena. Initially matured in traditional sherry and bourbon casks, Green Spot Chateau Montelena was then finished in Zinfandel wine casks, adding an exciting new dimension to this Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey already renowned for its excellent quality. Tasting Notes Nose: Crisp oak combines with the soft sweetness of vanilla, white chocolate and marshmallow, balanced with signature Green Spot red apples and ripe pears, along with pomegranate, cranberries and maraschino cherries, the contribution of the wine cask. Taste: Sweet mouth coating takes on a dry note thanks to the effect of the wine cask. Pot still spices subside with zesty citrus leading to ripe orchard fruit and red berries. A touch of marzipan and toasted oak add to the complexity. Finish: Satisfyingly long with pot still spices in harmony with the delicate dry wine contribution.
