Red Spot 15 Year Old Single Pot Still
A whiskey that has been matured in a combination of American Bourbon casks, Sherry butts and Sicilian Marsala wine casks. Its name originates from the Mitchell family's whiskey bonding business, whereby different casks would be marked with a spot of paint, such as; Blue Spot, Green Spot, Yellow Spot & Red Spot. Until now, this whiskey had yet to be revived, however, it gives us great pleasure to welcome its return.
