Redbreast 18 Year Old
Introducing Redbreast 18 Year Old, the first permanent addition to the Redbreast family in four years. With the addition of cream sherry casks, this delicious expression offers a unique twist on the classic Redbreast style.
Aged in a combination of bourbon barrels and casks flavored with the finest Oloroso sherry, cream sherry and ruby port, elevating this single pot still whiskey Redbreast to a new level.
Bursting with berry aromas, chocolatey hazelnut notes and the sweetness of caramelised stone fruit, the whiskey delivers a captivating array of new flavours to complement Redbreast's distinctive taste.
The enticing addition of casks of creamy sherry from acclaimed cooper Antonio Páez Lobato, rarely found in Redbreast whiskies, together with the more traditional cask profile of the portfolio, promises a new yet familiar tasting experience.
The whiskey has won 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.
Commenting on the launch of this whisky, Master Blender - Dave McCabe said: "This new addition to Redbreast's core range beautifully fills the gap between our older and younger offerings. We wanted to create a new flavour profile for the Redbreast permanent range, whilst offering something that is distinctively Redbreast in style. By incorporating cream sherry casks, we have created a whiskey that boasts a rich profile of dark chocolate, blackcurrant and hazelnut. This expression is not only a tribute to our heritage, but also showcases our commitment to innovation in Irish whiskey production."
