Redbreast 18 Year Old

Introducing Redbreast 18 Year Old, the first permanent addition to the Redbreast family in four years. With the inclusion of cream sherry casks, this excellent expression offers a unique twist on the classic Redbreast style.

Aged in a combination of bourbon casks and casks seasoned with the finest Oloroso sherry, creamy sherry, and ruby port, this single pot still whiskey Redbreast is elevated to a new level.

The whiskey is rich in aromas of berry fruits, chocolate notes of hazelnuts and the sweetness of caramelized stone fruits, delivering a captivating array of new flavors that complement the signature taste of Redbreast.

The enticing addition of cream sherry casks from the renowned cooperage Antonio Páez Lobato, which is rarely found in Redbreast whiskey, along with a more traditional cask profile in the portfolio promises a new yet familiar tasting experience.

The whiskey has won gold medals at competitions in 2024: Spirits Business Irish Whiskey Masters, The International Wine & Spirit Competition, The International Spirits Challenge, and Beverage Tasting Institute Awards.

Master Blender - Dave McCabe commented on the launch of this whiskey: “This new addition to the core range of Redbreast beautifully fills the gap between our older and younger offerings. We wanted to create a new flavor profile for the permanent Redbreast range while offering something that is stylistically characteristic of Redbreast. By incorporating cream sherry casks, we have created a whiskey that boasts a rich profile of dark chocolate, blackcurrants, and hazelnuts. This expression is not only a tribute to our heritage but also a showcase of our commitment to innovation in Irish whiskey production.”
