Redbreast 21 Year Irish Whiskey is a true masterpiece that represents the pinnacle of Irish whiskey craftsmanship. With a history dating back to 1903 when Jameson entered into a unique agreement with the Gilbeys Wines & Spirits Import Company, this whiskey embodies the tradition of bonding, where distilleries supplied bulk whiskey to "bonders" who matured it in their casks, often used previously for fortified wines like sherry and port. Redbreast 21 Year Old is a testament to this time-honored practice, offering a full-flavored and complex tasting experience. Silky smooth and exquisitely balanced, it weaves together a tapestry of spicy, fruity, sherry, and toasted notes.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is single pot still Irish whiskey at full maturity: malted and unmalted barley from Midleton Distillery in Cork, aged 21 years with sherry and ex-bourbon cask influence and bottled at 46% ABV. The sherry speaks first, with ripe apple, pear and dried apricot on the nose over toasted oak and warm spice. On the palate it turns velvety and sweet, with clove, nutmeg, dark berries and raisin, and the finish runs long as the sweetness and spice hold on. It is a bottle for the drinker who already knows the style and wants to see how far it goes with time in wood, and for collectors building an Irish shelf with real depth. It nods to the old bonding tradition, dating to a 1903 arrangement in which distilleries supplied whiskey to bonders who matured it in their own casks. We carry it because it rewards slow, attentive sipping, and because it shows how sherry and pot still spice can stay in balance after two decades.

What makes this a single pot still Irish whiskey?

It is made from a mix of malted and unmalted barley at Midleton Distillery in Cork, Ireland. That blend of grains is the hallmark of the single pot still style and gives the whiskey its spicy, full-bodied character, which here meets 21 years of sherry and ex-bourbon cask influence.

How should I drink it?

Sip it neat in a whiskey glass or Glencairn. The serving notes advise skipping ice and water so you taste it in its purest form, and giving it time to breathe in the glass so new layers of flavor open up as you sip.
