A superbly rich and complex 16 year old single cask Redbreast. A Celtic Whiskey Shop exclusive. This whiskey can be described as Christmas cake in a bottle because of it’s very pronounced sherry notes. Almost rum-like with aromas and flavours of banana fritters, rum baba, hot cross buns, marzipan, dates, pepper sauce and mesquite.
In classic Australian style, this whisky has absolutely rippled flavour out of its cask. However, while I was expecting spiky youth in the spirit and the abv, it drinks with a maturity and ease that belies these facts. I have since bought two bottles. Absolutely delicious and as good, if not better, than it’s Scotch peers
