Redbreast 15 year old, 40%

Price: 130 Issue: Spring 2026 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Irish Single Pot Still

Matured in bourbon and oloroso sherry casks, the nose is complex with chocolate brownie, toasted oak, well-integrated pot still spices, blackberry, toasted hazelnuts, prune, and raisin. It’s nutty and oily on the palate; just what you expect from a single pot still whiskey, as the spiciness builds to an epic peak, supported by fig, date, and jellied fruit. Wood spice, oakiness, and clove to finish.
