Tasting Notes

NOSE: A succulent medley of EXOTIC FRUITS, MANGO, PINEAPPLE, BLOOD ORANGE and ripe RED BERRIES and complemented by FRESH HERBS, AROMATIC OILS AND WOOD SPICES. VANILLA sweetness and TREACLE TOFFEE add to the richness, while WALNUTS and TOASTED OAK acknowledge the contribution from a supreme cask selection.

TASTE: Incredibly rich in texture with a luxuriously FRUITY introduction. Ripe red fleshed PLUMS, BLACK CHERRIES and SUMMER BERRIES are balanced by the prickle of a hint of CHILLI OIL. The taste evolves as CHERRY menthol, VANILLA and CINNAMON SWEET SPICES combine with RED PEPPER, NUTMEG and TOASTED OAK for an intriguing complexity.

FINISH: A satisfyingly long balance of RIPE FRUIT and WOOD SPICES, worthy of a journey of nearly three decades.

“Potent and velvety, this whisky has bold fruit flavors of roasted fig, macerated red plum, and toasted walnuts, with a bright and joyful finish that displays brighter red-cherry and watermelon candy interweaving among more serious notes of toasted vanilla and charred oak.“

“This new permanent addition to the Redbreast range is partially matured in ruby port casks, which have helped the vitality and the complexity of the finished whiskey while still delivering a remarkable intensity of red berry fruit.”
