Redbreast Lustau Edition Sherry Finish Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey 750ml is a remarkable expression that showcases the rich heritage and craftsmanship of the Redbreast brand. This unique whiskey is crafted from a combination of malted and unmalted barley, distilled in traditional copper pot stills, and matured in a carefully selected mix of ex-bourbon barrels and sherry casks, specifically from the esteemed Lustau bodega in Spain.

The influence of the Lustau sherry casks adds a layer of rich sweetness and depth, enhancing the whiskey's character.
The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of fruitcake, honey, and a subtle nuttiness that invites you to savor each sip. Redbreast Lustau Edition is perfect for sipping neat or with a splash of water, allowing the full spectrum of flavors to unfold.
