At its price point I would have expected a far more refined whiskey. It is youthful and would have been well served with a few more years in the cask. We will enjoy the bottle but doubt buy another.

Great Irish. This guy takes the 12 year’s amplitude and kicks it up a notch. Less toffee, more dark fruit, like plum or cherry, more alcohol. But here’s the thing, I can’t tell that the alcohol is there as much as the 15 year, which is the exact same proof. And that’s a positive in my book. The linger is almost as long as the 12 year, and nose is more fruity. Combine that with the slightly amped up body and presence of the sherry butt and his guy grades out right alongside the 12. Afterthought: man I love how that dark fruit washes over my palate and just sits there.

The best Redbreast I’ve had!
Excellent aroma, can barely taste the alcohol, although a 92 proof. Fullest, yet smoothest flavor. Finish and linger make you sit back, close your eyes and just grin to yourself.
The flavors are oak, plum, and that grass that grows on the bluffs above the beach, you know, constantly bent over from the sea breeze and catching that bit of salt from the air.
Would buy.
So delicious. Feels hearty like an Irish stew that can settle in and satisfy simply. Really enjoyed this and for the price point a staple in the cupboard.
