Redbreast 12 Year Old Single Pot Still Whiskey I first tried this whiskey about 12 years ago when the brand was first introduced to the Unites States market. This whiskey was one of the first premium Irish whiskey’s that was available. Before that time the only whiskey’s available in the United States was Midleton and Knappogue. For more on the history of Irish whiskey see the entry on our blog. This whiskey is distilled at the Midleton distillery using copper pot stills and aged in Ex-Bourbon casks and Oloroso sherry casks. Nose: The nose of this whiskey is rich, a bit sweet and typical of Single Pot Still whiskey’s with aromas of malt, grass or maybe hay. There are also aromas of apple, some cinnamon, fruit, vanilla, nuts – hazelnut fading into almonds or marzipan with just a hint of spicy notes that make me think of cake, with citrus and some oak at the end. Flavor and finish: The first sip is very complex with many flavors competing for attention that just go off in all directions. There is spiciness, hints of pepper, raisins or maybe sherry, honey – such as buckwheat or heather honey, with hints of vanilla, cinnamon, ginger and nuts that again remind me of cake. The finish goes on for a very long time with the spice fading into cake, vanilla and oak. Conclusion: This whiskey deserved the selection of “Irish Whiskey of the year” by Jim Murray’s Choice with 96 points in his 2010 Whisky Bible. While not a powerhouse, the Redbreast 12 Year Old is just delicious, fresh, very smooth and very complex, yet light and almost too easily drinkable. 96 points, Whisky Advocate Very elegant, complex, and stylish. Honeyed and silky in texture, with toffee, toasted marshmallow, nougat, maple syrup, banana bread, and a hint of toasted coconut. Bright fruit and golden raisin blend in nicely with the layers of sweetness. Impeccable balance and very approachable. Classic Irish whiskey! (Value Pick). John Hansell, Winter 2010. 93 points, Wine Enthusiast From county Cork comes this bartender favorite. Look for a vibrant golden color and enticing honeysuckle and buttery brioche aroma. This whiskey feels soft and sets the mouth watering with lightly smoky notes tapering off to jazzy layers of honey, dried fruit, cinnamon and ginger. Kara Newman, 3/1/2012.
