Benjamin Moore

Irish Mint

2041-70

Irish Mint is a near-white shade with subtle blue and green undertones. Its LRV of 83.34 makes it highly light-reflective, suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and sunlit areas where maintaining brightness is a priority. The cool blue-green cast is mild enough that the color still reads as a tinted white rather than a distinct color.

This shade coordinates with Benjamin Moore's Sea Foam, Whispering Spring, Blue Note, Crisp Romaine, and Spring Mint for layered cool-toned or high-contrast schemes.
