Redbreast 21 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey (700ml)

“Amongst the worlds truly great whiskeys.” – Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2020

With the entire Redbreast portfolio gleaning rapturous acclaim world wide, it’s hard to imagine how they’d be able to improve on perfection. Reports have it that the 21 year old achieves just that. A quintessential expression of the Pure Pot Still style. Irish whiskey rarely gets better than this.

Other reviews… Wow! After the wonderful 12 year old cask strength, Redbreast does it again. This is a different beast altogether, but it is a stunner. This is Roger Waters doing The Wall: over the top, unsubtle, and totally entertaining. Theres lots going on: fermenting apples, juicy oils, spice, and dark cherry and berry fruits zip and fizz over the palate, the wood influence is sublime. I’m comfortably numb. 96 points

“…amongst the worlds truly great whiskeys and a near blue print for the perfect Pot Still Irish Whiskey.”
97 points– Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2020

…A bottling I usually adore on the occasions Ive tried it in the past, although this is the first time Ive written proper notes. Colour: gold. Nose: golden syrup drizzled over passion fruit with ripe pineapple, melon, caramelised brown sugar and some sultanas stewed in old calvados. Simple and totally beautiful with these rather luscious and precise fruits. A touch of white pepper as well. Mouth: preserved lemons, lime oil, more brown sugar, fruit syrups, oatmeal flapjack and a little flinty minerality. Some green tea, hessian and then moving more towards white fruits such as lychee. Finish: Long, slightly earthy with a more nervous, citrus led fruitiness. Lots of lemon peel, olive oil, a touch of soot and some barley water. Comments: Its really one of the benchmark Irish whiskeys in my book. Beautiful fruitiness. 89 points – whiskyfun.com
