The ROBIN REDBREAST is the only bird which SINGS CONTINUOUSLY throughout the dark Irish winters and is one of the very few small birds that choose in WINTER IN IRELAND. It is the ENDURING SPIRIT which inspires its namesake, Redbreast Irish Whiskey.
Redbreast is regarded by many as the DEFINITIVE, EXPRESSION of SINGLE POT STILL IRISH WHISKEY. When the world demanded LIGHTER, more accessible whiskey styles, Redbreast stood STEADFAST in its BELIEF, of the TRADITION and SIGNIFICANCE of this style of whiskey, and for the past century, has remained the STANDARD BEARER, for Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey.
REDBREAST 27 elevates the storied reputation of this iconic whiskey even further. Building on the celebrated foundation of BOURBON and SHERRY CASK INFLUENCE, the inclusion of RUBY PORT CASK brings even more COMPLEXITY and DEPTH, Nearly THREE DECADES in the shaping, this cask strength Redbreast is a joy in behold in each and every bottle.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
A succulent medley of EXOTIC FRUITS, MANGO, PINEAPPLE, BLOOD ORANGE and ripe RED BERRIES, are complemented by FRESH HERBS, AROMATIC OILS AND WOOD SPICES, VANILLA sweetness and TREACLE TOFFEE add to the richness, while WALNUTS and TOASTED OAK acknowledge the contribution from a supreme cask selection.
TASTE
Incredibly rich in texture with a luxuriously FRUITY introduction. Ripe red-fleshed PLUMS, BLACK CHERRIES and SUMMER BERRIES are balanced by the prickle of a hint of CHILLI OIL. The taste evolves as CHERRY menthol, VANILLA and CINNAMON SWEET SPICES combine with RED PEPPER, NUTMEG and TOASTED OAK for an intriguing complexity.
FINISH
A satisfyingly long balance of RIPE FRUIT and WOOD SPICES, worthy of a journey of nearly three decades.
