Green Spot - Sensory Training with GolfCask

Exploring Green Spot Irish Whiskey | Sensory Training & Tasting Notes
Join us for a deep dive into Green Spot Irish Whiskey as we continue our March Irish Whiskey series! This episode of Bottle Share features a fun and insightful sensory training session, where we compare Green Spot’s smooth, fruity profile with the classic flavors of Makers Mark bourbon. We break down the pot still process, mash bill differences, and why Irish whiskey tends to be lighter and more approachable.
Special guests include Macy Bailie, a junior at Old Dominion University, along with Bo and Brian Ballard, sharing their takes on Irish whiskey—some for the first time! We discuss the history of Mitchell & Son's Spot Whiskeys, the unique aging process, and how flavor profiles evolve over time. Plus, we talk about Roe & Co Irish Whiskey, compare tasting notes, and look ahead to our upcoming Rocky Mountain Whiskey Series featuring High West, Old Elk, and Stranahan’s.
