Redbreast 18 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey 750ml

Product Description

The Robin Redbreast is the only bird which sings continuously throughout the dark Irish winters and is one of the very few small birds that choose to winter in Ireland. It is this enduring spirit which inspires its namesake, Redbreast Irish Whiskey. Regarded as the definitive expression of Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, Redbreast epitomises a style of whiskey that is crafted without compromise; a whiskey steeped in the traditions of fermentation, distillation, maturation, blending and bottling. Redbreast 18 year old is made from a mash of malted and unmalted barely and then triple distilled in copper pot stills. Having spent its maturation journey in bourbon barrels and casks seasoned with the finest Oloroso sherry, cream sherry and Ruby Port, this Redbreast is whiskey to savour with each and every sip. Tasting Notes Nose: Delectable berry fruit aromas of ripe blackcurrants and raspberries accompanied by sugar glazed cherries and dried fig. Indulgent tones of hazelnut chocolate and caramelized stone fruits with warming and fragrant notes of toasted almonds and cinnamon, nestled alongside polished oak and worn leather. Taste: Full-bodied and rounded, with the oak tannins complementing the decadent sweetness of sun-kissed grapes and autumnal fruits. Vibrant spices of freshly peeled ginger and hints of liquorice weave amongst the wine seasoned oak influences of dried fruits, dark berries and orange peel. Finish: Rich and lasting. The pot still spices, fruit and oak slowly fade harmoniously, showcasing the balance of this wonderfully complex whiskey.
