Redbreast Lustau Edition Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey 700ml

Product Description:
Redbreast Lustau Edition Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is a distinctive collaboration between the renowned Midleton Distillery and the celebrated Bodegas Lustau of Jerez, Spain. This unique expression builds upon the classic Redbreast single pot still style by incorporating an additional maturation in hand-selected Oloroso sherry casks sourced directly from the prestigious sherry house. Initially matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and traditional sherry-seasoned casks, the whiskey is then finished for a further period in first-fill Lustau Oloroso sherry butts, enriching the spirit with additional depth and complexity.

The finishing process introduces layers of dried fruit richness, warming spice, and nutty sweetness that complement the hallmark Redbreast character. Aromatic and full-bodied, the whiskey displays an elegant balance between creamy pot still texture and the vibrant influence of sherry oak. Notes of dark fruit, toasted nuts, and subtle citrus weave together with spice and oak, creating a profile that is both indulgent and refined. The influence of the Spanish casks enhances the whiskey without overwhelming its traditional Irish identity. Redbreast Lustau Edition stands as a celebrated example of thoughtful cask finishing, delivering depth, character, and exceptional balance in every sip.
