[MM-MALTS-L] Green Spot 10yo & 12yo bottlings

[john marrinan]

They're both very good, but not worth the money, in my opinion. There's even
rumours that they will be rebottled and sold off cheaper. The 12 yr old one
is a cask strength and it's superb. But €850 for a 12 yr old cask strength
whiskey?

The other is a 10 yr old bottled at 40%abv. Sure Redbreast 12 is two years
older and sells for over €200 less.
