Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Pure pot still is the only style of whiskey that is exclusively made in Ireland. Confusingly, pure pot still's distinctive characteristic is not that it is made in a pot-still. Irish malts are also made in pot stills but the type of barley used in the distillation process. Where single malt is produced from 100% malted barley, pure pot still whiskey uses a mix of malted and unmalted barley. This mixed mashbill gives the whisky a distinctive spiciness known as potstill character'. All the pure pot still Irish Whiskey available today is made at the New Midleton distillery, home of Jameson. Some of the older expressions of Jameson contain a large proportion of aged pure pot still whiskey.
