Description

21 years. Redbreast — the apex of the standard Redbreast age-stated range, presenting Ireland’s most celebrated single pot still whiskey at 21 years of maturation — non-chill filtered and bottled at 46% ABV with the full textural richness of two decades of Irish oak aging.

At 21 years, the single pot still character that defines Redbreast — the oily, spicy, full-bodied quality produced by the unmalted barley mashbill — has integrated fully with the American bourbon, American virgin oak, and Spanish sherry cask program to produce a whiskey of remarkable tropical fruit depth that surprised the industry when it launched. The banana, butterscotch, and mango character at 21 years is unexpected from a whiskey this aged — a product of the pot still’s fruit ester production at the specific maturation point.
