Green Spot releases typically fall into two categories: the classic Green Spot and those finished in wine casks, such as the previous Château Léoville Barton. All are single pot still whiskies aged between 7 and 10 years.
The Green Spot Chateau Montelena is a triple-distilled single pot still Irish whiskey initially matured in ex-sherry and ex-bourbon casks and finished for 12 months in ex-Zinfandel wine casks (Primitivo grape) from Chateau Montelena in California. Bottled at the classic 46% ABV, this release is a limited edition.
