Having recently tried Tullamore D.E.W. and Bushmill’s 12 Year Single Malt and finding both to be very mild and practically flavorless compared to the bourbons and rums I’m used to, I wasn’t expecting to like this Redbreast 12 Year. I think it’s a bit better than the two others, but it’s still got that sour Irish whiskey taste I don’t care for that dominates whatever flavors are supposedly there. For the price, I can get a good bourbon or rum that will totally blow this Irish whiskey away.
