Distilled at the renowned Midleton Distillery in Ireland, this exceptional whiskey is matured for no less than 7 years in a combination of bourbon, sherry, and Madeira casks, and bottled at an impressive cask strength of 58.7% ABV. The collaboration between Irish Distillers and Mitchells & Sons has brought back the Blue Spot with its unique character and complexity, embodying the unmistakable qualities of Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey.

Multiple batches have been released, including Batch 1, Batch 2, and an American Batch Release. The American Batch Release is 750ml, while other batches are 700ml, both maintaining the robust 58.7% ABV.
