Redbreast is a global icon in the whiskey world, setting the standard for quality and craftsmanship. Its Single Pot Still Whiskey isn't just a best-seller—it's so esteemed that it practically defines its own category.
An Irish gem, Redbreast owes its rich complexity to a meticulously perfected, age-old process based on three fundamental principles: a mash of both malted and unmalted barley; triple distillation in traditional copper pot stills; and aging in first-fill bourbon and sherry casks at the Midleton distillery.
