812 : Redbreast 12 year old

Master at Irish Whiskey Masters in 2021, 2022, and 2023 so it's no surprise that this is a huge favourite. This 100% heavy pot still whiskey has a high sherry ageing percentage. Redbreast was a brand name for Jameson's pure Irish pot still, bottled in bond by Gilbeys. First made in 1939 with Jameson filling Gilbey's own casks. Two sherry casks were used for each bourbon cask. Redbreast was originally created in 1912 by the legendary bottlers and distillers Gilbey’s, and the early incarnations were always sourced from the old Jameson Distillery on Bow Street in Dublin. Over the years a variety of expressions were released that were bottled at either 10 years old or 12 years old. Once the Jameson Distillery became part of Irish Distillers supplies of casks to Gilbey’s dried up and the last ‘Old Redbreast’ bottlings were released in 1985. The brand was subsequently sold to Irish Distillers and was fortunately revived in 1991 using whiskey sourced from the Midleton Distillery. All the bottlings released since then have been made using Midleton whiskey and in the main these make use of high-quality Sherry casks, with a lesser amount of Bourbon casks in each vatting. Whiskey connoisseurs have fallen back in love with Redbreast whiskey and for many it is the quintessential Irish Single Pot Still whiskey.
