Redbreast Lustau Edition Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey 750ml is a distinctive collaboration between the iconic Redbreast brand and Bodegas Lustau of Jerez, Spain. This expression begins as traditional Redbreast Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey matured in bourbon and sherry casks before being finished in first fill Oloroso sherry butts from Lustau.
The result is a rich, full bodied whiskey layered with dried fruit, toasted oak, and sherry sweetness. Triple distilled and crafted in the classic Irish pot still style, this expression delivers depth, spice, and complexity while maintaining the smooth character that defines Redbreast.
