Gold Spot 13 Year Old The Generations 46% 70cl
The latest in the Gold Spot line-up is The Generations, a 13-year-old single pot still whiskey. Here, Gold Spot’s signature ex-bourbon and ex-sherry cask liquid is finished for 16 months in Valpolicella Riciotto Italian wine casks. The result is profoundly fruity, with the whiskey’s subtle spice notes joined by an array of jammy fruits and rich nuttiness. It celebrates the seven generations of the Mitchell family who founded the Spot whiskeys brand.
Tasting notes from Irish Distillers:
Nose: Red apples and dark fleshy fruits at first, accompanied by fragrant blossom notes with sweet and woody undertones. Spices of clove and light dustings of nutmeg along with subtle hints of almond slowly come to the fore, complementing the fruits.
Palate: Luscious and sweet with generous servings of red berry compote, toffee apple and raisin. The wine seasoned casks and oak continue to impart delicate tannins, working in tandem with the pot still spices and fruits, while the sweetness adds further intricate flavours, balancing this wonderfully intriguing whiskey.
Finish: Lingering finish which sees the oak slowly fading, allowing the sweet wine and pot still spices to have the last word.
