What it’s like

Redbreast’s twenty-one-year-old is one of Ireland’s great pot still whiskeys. It combines bourbon and oloroso sherry casks and is bottled at 46% ABV, without chill filtration. The long maturation gives it an oily texture and a very complex profile: tropical fruit, dried fruit, pot still spice and deep oak. No smoke. It is a cult whiskey among enthusiasts, to drink neat and slowly.

Nose
Tropical fruit, raisins, pot still spice, wax and very elegant oak.
Palate
Oily. Ripe and dried fruit, toffee, pepper, nuts and deep oak.
Finish
Very long, spicy and fruity, with a hint of oak and sherry.
