Winner of 10 awardsSpot Whiskey
This is the second addition to the 'Spot' range of Irish whiskeys, which contains the famous Green Spot Pot Still Whiskey. The Yellow Spot is a single pot still Irish whiskey which has been matured in three types of cask: American bourbon cask, Spanish sherry butts and Spanish Malaga casks for a sweeter flavour.

Yes, that one hits the spot. A very smooth, though very potent whickey. Very enjoyable, though not inexpensive. Its one that you dont leave in view in the cabinet !
I also bought both. Green is typical, basic Irish Whiskey - which is to say very delightful. So I tasted tested both, side by side. I'd have to agree with the previous post, not a huge difference between the two. But, you have to understand that Yellow is Green. Green is aged longer, and in the Spanish Sherry butts, and the Malaga casks...which does impart additional, if not subtle, flavors. But, subtle is good. You don't want overwhelming. But, $45 or so for Green, and $95 or so for Yellow...not sure it's worth the extra $50.....but, still very delightful. Yum. Enjoy.
Bought a bottle of each. No difference. Not happy.
An unequivocal 10 out of 10. If I were to be able to drink only one whisk(e)y for the rest of my life, I think I would choose Yellow Spot, from those that are readily available. It is simply beautiful to consume and savour. I have always loved Powers John's Lane and Green Spot, together with the various Redbreast expressions. But in my view Yellow Spot is primus inter pares.
I have been a single malt scotch drinker for more years than I like to admit, but on a recent trip to Ireland (Galway), I discovered this whiskey. In a word; stunning. When you read 'sweetness' in the tasting notes, forget your preconceptions of some scotches. This has a sweetness that is also (and at the same time) quite strident. The fruitiness does linger, but not in a cloying way. This like the best of the borders scotch, but with a certain something unique that can only be described as...well, Irish.
