My first induction into Redbreast was a memorable one. I was at a party, thrown by true Irish Whiskey aficionados who had a full line-up of wine & spirits. I tasted the Redbreast alongside a very popular, admittedly 'basic' Irish Whiskey (which shall remain unnamed, but you can guess!), and it was clearly no contest whatsoever. The Redbreast was smooth and subtle with a hint of sweetness while still finishing dry. The other whiskey had a harshness, and you definitely tasted the alcohol (which doesn't appeal to me).

Unique among whiskeys, Redbreast is a ‘Single’ unblended, pure pot still Irish whiskey which has been triple distilled in oak casks for not less than twelve years. This uncompromising dedication to authenticity and quality gives Redbreast a traditional smooth mellow character and a taste which is full flavoured and assertive but not over-robust.

Apparently being distilled in the pots is an old fashioned traditional practice which produces a whiskey of exceptional quality. I just know that I loved the taste. Pure, smooth & delicious! A great gift for your favorite Irishman or woman, or if you are the Irish one, give a little piece of your history - it will be a well savored bottle.
