Green Spot Chateau Léoville Barton finishes the classic Midleton single pot still whiskey in wine casks from Chateau Léoville Barton — a Second Growth Saint-Julien producer in Bordeaux that has been owned by the Barton family (of Irish descent) since 1826. The Franco-Irish connection is both historical and liquid.
The Bordeaux finishing adds a dimension that few Irish whiskey finishes can match. The Cabernet-dominated wine casks contribute dark fruit, a gentle tannic structure and a complexity that elevates the naturally fresh, spicy Green Spot character into something more substantial and layered.
Green Spot Léoville Barton is one of the finest finished Irish whiskeys available. The Franco-Irish connection adds romance, but the liquid delivers on its own merits — a beautifully balanced marriage of pot still spice and Bordeaux fruit. A whiskey that honours both traditions it draws from.
