A delightful single pot still Irish whiskey, Redbreast 12 Year Old is highly praised by a host of notable critics. Distilled at the Midleton site from malted and unmalted barley, it’s then matured in a combination of American oak bourbon barrels and Spanish oak Oloroso sherry butts. We can't get enough of this multi-award-winning whiskey.
Nutty, rich and oily. There are notes of dried peels, ginger, linseed and cut fruits including a touch of melon.
Spicy with great body. Nuts and citrus (peel and juice) with hints of marzipan, dried fruits and a hint of Sherry. You turn it over in your mouth forever.
Long and creamy with custard and spice.

So I found myself in Ireland and went for a little whisky tasting and history at a pub with my brother-in-law. After all the history and such we finally got to the tasting and the Redbrest stood out to us both.
Nose - Caramel and Floral Vanilla Palate - soft, Coconut!, cream, caramel, butterscotch, into gentle wood This is so smooth you do not need to add water. It’s a beautiful dessert of a drink.
It's a smooth easy drinking whiskey, and I'm happy to have added it to my collection for the occasional change from scotch. I've always been a regular Jameson guy in the past when I fancy a bit of Irish, but this is much better, however as it's twice the price I'd expect it to be.
Very simply one of the best Irish whiskeys available in Canada. My wife and I recently toured Ireland and sampled what we believed to be some of the best Irish whiskies available ( Green Spot, Connemara, Writers Tears, Lockes, Teeling S Grain...). Red Breast rules right up there. Smooth, complex, delightful.
the best representation of Irish pot still at present ....that and green spot !...... it's changed slightly since the days of Gilbey's being the bonders .However; Jameson's have done it some justice over the years and is a credit to Master blender Billy Leighton who has put his own interpretation on it !.......keep up the good work !....Joxer Catterall.
