Gold Spot The Generations Edition
For whiskey enthusiasts, the brand has also unveiled Gold Spot The Generations Edition, which pays tribute to the generations of colourful family history behind the Spot Whiskeys. This limited-edition 13 year old single pot still Irish whiskey stands as the second offering in the Gold Spot series, following the previous nine-year-old Gold Spot’s inaugural launch. A non-chill filtered release bottled of Gold Spot The Generations Edition is now available to purchase in limited quantities in the UK for £130. Link to purchase HERE.
When Mitchell & Son began bonding whiskey in 1887, the family brought its colourful legacy to the Dublin whiskey scene. After generations of a family business covering everything from confectionery to cafes to imported wines, the Spot family was born when the Mitchells injected their eclectic energy into whiskey bonding. The Mitchells were the first to devise the clever system of labelling casks with a daub of paint that identified the age of the whiskey, a tradition that has led the brand to be known worldwide for Green Spot, Yellow Spot, Blue Spot, Red Spot and most recently, Gold Spot whiskies.
