Redbreast 18 Yr. Irish Whiskey

An impressive addition to the Redbreast flock, this edition of the much adored single pot still Irish whiskey matured for a generous 18 years! The whiskey aged in a combo of bourbon barrels as well as casks seasoned with oloroso sherry, cream sherry, and ruby Port chosen by master blender David McCabe.

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."

Palate: "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."  46% abv Distillery Notes
