## Description

Product Description Redbreast 12 year old is one of very few aged pure pot still whiskies. It was first launched in 1939 as a pot still whiskey supplied by Jameson to whiskey bonders before bottling at the distillery became the norm in 1968. Thus Redbreast all but disappeared until its re-launch by the distillery in the 1990s as a single pot still whiskey. Using water from the Dungourney river beside the Middleton Distillery the malted and unmalted barley is fermented to a wash of 8 percent abv, then distilled in copper pot stills. Matured for a minimum of 12 years in a combination of Spanish Oloroso Sherry casks and American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. Like all good pot still whiskeys, it is strongly flavoured and assertive, making it a rare treat for the connoisseur of fine old whiskey and very different to the rest of the Jameson range. Ingredients Ingredients include: Aged Irish Whiskey (cereal & malt distillates), Demineralised waterEnergy information: Per 100ml (Kcal) - 221. Per Serve (Kcal) - 55.25 Manufacturer Contact Information Midleton Distillery, Co. Cork, Ireland.

Review: Very nice drop! - I’ve literally just had a drop of this whiskey (with one ice cube) and I’m extremely happy with my purchase. I found Redbreast beautifully smooth and richly flavoured whiskey, with a gentle sweetness and a subtle hint of spice that adds real depth. It’s well balanced, easy to sip, and feels both comforting and refined with every dram. While it’s not the cheapest bottle on the shelf, the quality more than justifies the price, making it excellent value for money. I would happily purchase it again and can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a smooth, characterful Irish whiskey.
Review: Better than Jameson's !! - I've been working my way through Irish whiskeys recently and my favourite by a longshot was Jameson's until I tried Midletons Very Rare and Redbreast 12 as both are even sweeter & just as smooth but even denser (kind of like comparing a smooth and creamy pint of Guinness in England to a smooth and silky pint of Guinness in Dublin) - and here's my edited rankings of the tastiest Irish whiskeys I've tried upto now 1: Midleton's Very Rare Irish Whiskey: Leaves a lovely choc/orange/coffee-like taste in my gullet and is extremely tasty but at £180+ per 70cl it's a rare sweet treat. 2. Redbreast 12 year old - this is almost as good as my number 1 but over 3 times cheaper and just as Midletons is sweet this one has a sherry undertone. 3: Powers "Gold Label Distillers Cut": For a 43%er it goes down real well and has a much sweeter taste than Powers Gold Label 40%. 4. Green Spot: There's no particular "taste" to this that you can savour unlike my top 3 but it doesn't have any nasty aftertaste & goes down real well 5. Jameson's: Nice and smooth but much less tasty than my top 2 and I've kinda gone off it after discovering aforementioned 4 whiskey brands. 6: Tullamore Dew. 7: Powers Gold Label. 8. Bushmills. 9. Redbreast 15 (at 46% abv it's too fricken strong + it gave me a sore throat for 5 fricken days after !!). 10. Writer's Tears Copper Pot: Only reason I've put this last is coz Copper Pot whiskeys don't agree with my gullet and eventhough it's muchmore drinkable than the likes of Haig Club Scotch and Jack Daniels Gentleman Jack (which both taste like meths & make me puke after 2 glasses) it still made me sick next morning due to its Copper-like aftertaste in my gullet. I've yet to try Connemara whiskey but WILL NOT be trying Connacht, Red Spot, Blue Spot + Yellow Spot whiskeys as anything over 43% abv is far too strong - but Midleton's Very Rare Irish Whiskey and Redbreast 12yo are so tasty it's difficult to try others compared to how disappointed I was with the 40% Powers Gold Label.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shush, don't tell anyone, this is a gem.
*by C***H on 3 October 2026*

Easy on the nose, tantalising on the tongue with a subtle sweet winter spice finish. I hated it as I don't want to share it! This was a treat.
