Irish whiskey brand Spot Whiskey is celebrating 100 years of Green Spot with a limited-edition 10-year-old expression, crafted at Midleton Distillery and available through Master of Malt.
It has partnered with colour experts, YesColours, to create a bespoke Green Spot paint shade, which pays homage to the traditional Green Spot launched in 1925 by Mitchell & Son.
Housed in an anniversary bottle created with branding agency WMH&I who reimagined its iconic green daub. Once a simple mark of maturity and quality, the daub now inspires the vivid green brushstrokes, accented with gold, that sweep across the bottle. The result is a design that honours the traditional hand-marked casks while uniting three partners with a shared commitment to colour, craft, and character.
Chief blender at Irish Distillers, maker of Spot Whiskey, David McCabe, says: “Our green daub has always been more than a symbol. It’s a mark of trust, craftsmanship and the care that goes into every drop of our Green Spot expression. This 100 Year Anniversary Limited Edition 10-Year-Old, we wanted to honour our heritage by creating a bespoke liquid that reflects the depth of the original Green Spot cask, while showcasing how far the brand has come. Collaborating with YesColours has allowed us to celebrate this legacy in a new way, with a bespoke shade and bottle design that reflects where we’ve come from, while carrying those craft-led values into the future.”
