The World’s Most Awarded Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is delighted to unveil a new permanent addition to its esteemed family: Redbreast 18 Year Old. A bold expression made even more unique by the addition of cream sherry casks in the aging process.
Matured to Perfection Matured by our Master Blender in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and casks seasoned with the finest oloroso sherry, cream sherry, and ruby port to elevate Redbreast’s Single Pot Still Whiskey to new heights. Bursting with berry fruit aromas, hazelnut chocolate tones, and caramelized stone fruit sweetness, our latest addition introduces a captivating array of new flavors that complement that signature Redbreast taste.
92 Proof | 46% ABV | Aged 18 Years
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.
Going For Gold Our latest expression is off to an impressive start, having secured Gold medals at the 2024 Spirits Business Irish Whiskey Masters, The International Wine & Spirit Competition, The International Spirits Challenge, and the Beverage Tasting Institute Awards.
Master Blender's Insight Speaking about the launch, Master Blender Dave McCabe says: “This new addition to the Redbreast core range beautifully bridges the gap between our older and younger offerings. We wanted to unlock a new taste profile for the Redbreast permanent range while still offering something that feels distinctly Redbreast in its style. By incorporating the cream sherry casks, we’ve created a whiskey that boasts a rich profile of dark chocolate, blackcurrants, and hazelnuts. This expression not only honors our heritage but also showcases our commitment to innovation in Irish whiskey making.”
