Redbreast Dream Cask 30 year old Double Cask Edition, 56.9%

There is an urgency to the single pot still spices on the nose, their insistence backed by a jumble of dark fruits, new leather, maple syrup, dates, balsamic vinegar, teriyaki sauce, molasses, and charred oak. It’s a seriously big hitter to taste, with stewed apple, black currant, treacle, peppercorn, sultana, and fruit skins, getting darker and weightier with more oak, black coffee, and bitter chocolate extending into the dry, spicy finish. An extraordinary whiskey. €600
