The Redbreast 18 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is the epitome of aged whiskey perfection, crafted by the renowned Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Ireland. This whiskey is revered for its unparalleled balance of rich, fruity flavours and elegant oak, making it one of the finest examples of Single Pot Still Irish whiskey available today.

Aged for a minimum of 18 years, this whiskey spends its maturation period in a combination of American oak bourbon barrels and Oloroso sherry butts. These premium cask choices impart layers of complexity and depth to the whiskey, contributing to its rich and luxurious taste. The influence of the Oloroso sherry casks brings forward notes of dried fruits, nuts, and warm spices, while the bourbon barrels add sweetness and creamy vanilla undertones. The extended aging also adds a refined elegance to the whiskey, ensuring that each sip is a journey through a wide range of flavours.

Producer History:

Midleton Distillery, home to the Redbreast brand, is one of the most famous distilleries in Ireland, known for producing some of the best Irish whiskey brands. Established in 1825, the distillery has a long-standing tradition of excellence, crafting whiskies that have garnered awards and worldwide acclaim. The Redbreast range is among their most celebrated offerings, particularly due to the meticulous attention to detail in the blending and aging process. Redbreast’s focus on Single Pot Still Irish whiskey makes it a standout in the industry, delivering a style that is uniquely Irish, with the perfect balance of tradition and innovation.

Tasting Notes:

  • Appearance: Deep amber, with warm golden hues and a slight sheen from its rich aging.
  • Aroma: A complex bouquet of dried fruits like figs and raisins, intertwined with roasted nuts, hints of marzipan, and a subtle touch of spices like cinnamon and clove.
  • Flavour: The palate is full-bodied and robust, offering layers of sherry richness combined with toasted oak, honey, and vanilla. The sherry influence brings forward fruity sweetness, balanced by warm spices and a touch of cocoa.
  • Mouthfeel: Luxuriously smooth, with a velvety texture that glides across the palate. The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering sweetness and spice.

Food Pairings:

This 18-year-old Single Pot Still Irish whiskey pairs beautifully with rich and savoury dishes. Try it alongside a charcuterie board featuring aged cheeses, cured meats, and figs to enhance the whiskey's complex flavours. For a hearty meal, pair with roast lamb or beef to complement the whiskey's deep, savoury notes. Desserts like dark chocolate torte or Christmas pudding are also excellent choices to bring out the sherry sweetness in the whiskey.

Serving and Cocktail Suggestions:

While this Redbreast 18 Year Old is best enjoyed neat to appreciate its complexity, it also works well with a splash of water to open up the flavours. For those who enjoy cocktails, a whiskey sour made with this premium whiskey and a hint of orange bitters offers a modern twist on a classic. Alternatively, serve it over a large ice cube to slowly mellow its bold flavours while sipping.
