Redbreast 18y Pot Still 70cl 46°
Redbreast 18 Year Old Single Pot Still is a rare and distinguished member of the Redbreast range, renowned for its rich, complex flavor profile due to long aging.
Less common than the 12 or 21 year old versions, the 18 year old offers an ideal balance between the spicy and fruity notes that are the hallmarks of Redbreast whiskies.
Aged in oak casks that have previously contained oloroso sherry, ruby port and bourbon, it acquires rich, woody notes. The sherry influence is strongly felt, imparting a fruity sweetness and nutty nuances. The smooth texture, characteristic of “Single Pot Still” whiskeys, is remarkably pronounced.
Prized for its aromatic richness, Redbreast 18 yo blends the freshness of younger whiskies with the elegance of older expressions, gaining in complexity and structure over 18 years of maturation, to the delight of connoisseurs.

Redbreast is an exceptional Single Pot Still whiskey produced by the Midleton distillery.
Recognised as one of the best Irish Whiskeys in the world for its perfect balance and complexity similar to great Scotch whiskies, Redbreast is often called the "Irish nectar".
In 1966, John Jameson & Son decided to mingle with whiskey production companies John Power & Son and Cork Distillers Company and established the Irish Distillers Ltd., a sub-company today part of the Pernod-Ricard group. The complete whiskey production is today located in a new building in Midleton distillery, Cork.
Midleton is one of the most modern distilleries in the world. Its production capacity reaches near to 19 million litres a year. 13 stills are operating and make all types of Irish whiskeys combined (Irish pot still, single malt, single grain…).
The old distillery building, much more impressive, has been kept and turned into a museum. Named “The Jameson Heritage Center”, we may admire an amazing water wheel from 1852, a stationary steam machine used to power the distillery and the biggest still the world. It is in one of these old Georgian architecture stone buildings with red shutters that Barry Crockett, the current Midleton distillery Director, was born.
Single pot still whiskey has been labeled as the "Irish nectar" and is deemed one of the best Irish whiskey in the world.
