Volume: 0.7 liters | Alcohol content: 40% | Chill-filtered | With color
Description
Redbreast whiskeys are venerable representatives of the traditional single pot still Irish whiskeys. Neither a blend nor a single malt, distillates from this complex Irish category are produced in a single distillery from malted and unmalted barley, distilled in a traditional copper pot still. As is typical of the Irish style, the Midleton Distillery also passes its vapors through the pot still three times. The result: the wonderfully mild, aromatic Redbreast spirit.
Matured extensively in bourbon casks and Oloroso sherry butts, the Redbreast 12 yo is characterized by a distinctive sherry flavor and a spicy, fruity character. This is particularly intense in the Redbreast 12 yo Cask Strength. At 57.2% ABV, it unfolds luscious notes of figs, ripe bananas, vanilla, and oak.
