15 Year Redbreast Single Pot Whiskey
Regular price €115.00Redbreast 15 Year Old is a true masterclass in Irish whiskey, crafted with a perfect blend of tradition and complexity. This premium expression from the Redbreast range is made using the unique single pot still method, which gives it its signature depth and rich character. Aged for 15 years in a mix of Oloroso sherry casks and bourbon barrels, this whiskey showcases an extraordinary balance between the richness of the cask influence and the smoothness of its pot still distillation.
On the nose, Redbreast 15 Year Old is immediately captivating with aromas of dried fruits—raisin, fig, and sultana—mingling with warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, alongside a delicate hint of oak and chocolate. There’s also a subtle floral undertone that adds to its complexity.
The palate is rich and full-bodied, yet beautifully smooth, with layers of toffee, honeycomb, and dried fruit leading to a touch of dark chocolate and a hint of toasted nuts. The 15 years of maturation offer a perfect balance of spice and sweetness, creating a long, warming finish with a touch of oak and leather that lingers invitingly.
Whether sipped neat, with a splash of water, or over a single ice cube, Redbreast 15 Year Old is an exceptional expression for both connoisseurs and those looking to explore the depth of pot still whiskey. It’s an ideal choice for pairing with rich foods like charcuterie, creamy cheeses, or dark chocolate desserts.
A careful balance of first fill and refill casks accentuates the assorted spices within Redbreast's characteristic full and complex flavour, amplified through additional maturation.
