NVRedbreast 15 Year Old is an exceptional expression of Ireland’s most celebrated single pot still whiskey range — deeper, richer, and more complex than its younger counterparts. Matured for a minimum of fifteen years in a carefully balanced combination of bourbon and first-fill Oloroso sherry casks, this whiskey exemplifies the mastery of long maturation and traditional Irish craftsmanship.
On the nose, it presents layers of ripe fruit, toasted nuts, and warm spice, while the palate unfolds with honeyed malt, dried fruit, vanilla, and sherry richness. The extended ageing brings added depth and structure, with oak, spice, and fruit harmonising into a luxurious and velvety profile. Bottled at 46% ABV, Redbreast 15 Year Old is full-bodied and sophisticated, offering a perfect balance between pot still spice and sherry sweetness.
Produced at the world-renowned Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Redbreast remains the definitive benchmark for Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey — a uniquely Irish style crafted from a mash of malted and unmalted barley and triple-distilled in copper pot stills for smoothness and complexity.
The brand’s origins date back to Gilbey’s of Dublin, a 19th-century wine and spirit merchant that first aged Irish whiskey in sherry casks imported from Spain. Today, Redbreast continues that legacy under Irish Distillers, combining heritage methods with expert cask management to create some of the most acclaimed whiskeys in the world.
Redbreast 15 Year Old represents the pinnacle of this tradition — a whiskey of remarkable depth and refinement that captures the very soul of Irish pot still craftsmanship. Rich, warming, and endlessly rewarding, it stands as one of Ireland’s true whiskey masterpieces.
