- Description
- Redbreast's single pot still character matures for 16 years in a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt, bottled at cask strength without chill-filtration. This 2001 vintage from Midleton combines the spicy, oily richness of pot still whiskey with deep sherry influence, yielding a complex, full-bodied Irish whisky.
