Redbreast 21 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey 700ml

Redbreast is a brand of single pot still Irish Whiskey produced by Irish Distillers.

It is the largest selling single pot still Irish whiskey in the world.

Tasting Notes of the 21YO: 

Nose: Remarkable aroma spanning fresh tropical fruits, nuts and rich dry fruit.

Taste: Soft vanilla, toasted oak, sherry nuttiness with a dusting of pot still spices. Luscious fleshy fruit notes complete the creamy mouth feel.

Finish: Lingers, seemingly forever, to oak and pot spices, and then, the final bow to barley- where it all began.
