Redbreast Kentucky Oak Edition

I was a bit disappointed with Redbreast Kentucky Oak. It has some nice woody notes from the virgin American Oak but it lacks the classic Redbreast Sherry complexity. I didn’t think it tasted that different than Hinch Double Wood which is a blend and 1/3 of the price. The Score Distiller gives it tells you everything…it’s an Irish Whiskey for Bourbon drinkers. My bourbon friends like this one, my Irish Whiskey friends (myself included) think Redbreast PX was far superior to Kentucky Oak.

Notes of rich notes of toffee, charred oak. Bourbon finish comes on strong, presents a long, lingering finish.

Not overly sweet, vanilla & toffee notes upfront wood and citrus on the backend. extremely enjoyable for my pallet. Nothing bourbon about it, do not go into this expecting a marriage of Irish and bourbon. This is 100% Irish done in a different way and personally I love it.

Definitely get the 101 proof off the bat then mellows out to a vanilla toffee taste.
