About this listCork
Every release on this list comes from one place: the New Midleton Distillery in Midleton, County Cork, established in 1975 and owned by Irish Distillers, a subsidiary of Pernod Ricard. Many of them are single pot still whiskeys, made by a single distillery from a mixed mash of malted and unmalted barley distilled in a pot still, and Redbreast and Green Spot are both distilled at Midleton. Production of Redbreast moved from Dublin to Cork after Irish Distillers closed its Dublin distilleries in 1971 and consolidated production in Midleton. The Spot range is bottled for the Dublin merchant Mitchell & Son, which reintroduced Yellow Spot in May 2012, with Red Spot following in November 2018 and Blue Spot in November 2020. Midleton Very Rare is also made there, and its Dair Ghaelach editions were finished for a year in virgin Irish oak barrels, while the Method and Madness releases come from Midleton's micro-distillery, which launched its first four whiskies in 2017.
