Newslink: Whiskey Review: Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey
Let’s first discuss what makes ‘Single Pot Still’ something special. For starters, it’s the only whiskey making process that is unique to Ireland. In contrast to single malt, single pot still indicates use of both malted and unmalted barley in the mash bill, which provides a unique “spiciness” indicative of this unusual style. This method was first attempted in the 1800s, not as a way to improve flavor, but as a way to cut costs. Luckily for 19th century whiskey distillers, the grain variance along with the use of traditional pot stills added complexity instead of an air of cheapness. Besides Green Spot, only a few other examples (Redbreast and Powers among them) are readily available on American liquor store shelves today.
