A great comparison guys, all three are delicious whiskies! The zinfandel cask gives me lactic notes just at the right amount where I enjoy and it's not overwhelming. The bordeaux one is a more safe choice I think where I see more people like it but overall three beautiful whiskies. Cheers guys 🥃

@dennis85573 10 күн бұрын
Since they are both from the Middleton distillery, just wondering what are the differences in the making process of the Spot whiskeys compared to the Red Breast line?
@TheWhiskeyNerd 9 күн бұрын
They don't really talk about it publicly, but essentially, the difference is that they can use different proportions of malted and unmalted barley to vary the base flavour. They also make variations of "light, medium, heavy and traditional" pot still whiskey by changing the where they make the cuts, i.e. they can include more/less of the foreshots or feints or both. So it's likely a combination of those two things. Hope that helps!
