Red Spot is the latest chapter in the long and storied tradition of Mitchell & Son, one of Ireland's most esteemed and historic whiskey makers. The family’s legacy of whiskey production stretches back to the 1800s when they first started maturing whiskey in wine and fortified wine casks in Dublin. Red Spot is a tribute to the Mitchell family's entrepreneurial spirit, which has been passed down through generations. Today, under the care of the seventh generation of the Mitchell family, Red Spot continues to exemplify the commitment to quality and craftsmanship that made Mitchell & Son famous.

Produced at the Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Red Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is crafted using the finest ingredients and traditional methods. The combination of malted and unmalted barley gives Red Spot its distinctive mouthfeel, while the whiskey’s maturation in a combination of bourbon casks, sherry butts, and Sicilian Marsala wine casks imparts a rich complexity and depth of flavour. Every bottle of Red Spot reflects the time-honoured techniques of Irish whiskey-making, ensuring that each sip is a testament to the craftsmanship and dedication of the Mitchell family.

At the heart of Red Spot is the belief that great whiskey starts with tradition. Red Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is a celebration of the Mitchell family’s commitment to preserving the art of Irish whiskey-making, which has been passed down through seven generations. The whiskey’s distinct character is the result of time and patience, where each cask of spirit is allowed to mature to perfection in a carefully chosen combination of barrels. This fusion of time-honoured traditions and innovative maturation techniques is what makes Red Spot a true expression of Irish craftsmanship.

The philosophy of Red Spot is one of balance and complexity. The whiskey blends the bold, spicy character of Irish Single Pot Still whiskey with the smoothness and depth imparted by its maturation in a variety of casks, including American oak, sherry, and Sicilian Marsala wine casks. This unique maturation process results in a whiskey that is rich in flavour, yet smooth and approachable. Red Spot’s philosophy is about creating a whiskey that stands the test of time—one that honours the past while embracing the future, offering an exceptional whiskey experience that appeals to both new enthusiasts and long-time connoisseurs.
