Redbreast
unveils limited edition Redbreast Pedro
Ximénez Edition which joins the existing
Lustau Edition to form 'The Iberian
Series' which celebrates the brand’s
long-standing connection to some of the
Iberian Peninsula’s most celebrated
cooperages and winemakers.
Redbreast
Irish Whiskey, produced by Irish
Distillers at Midleton Distillery, has
unveiled
Redbreast Pedro Ximénez Edition which
will join their existing
Redbreast Lustau Edition to form 'The
Iberian Series' celebrates the brand’s
long-standing connection to some of the
Iberian Peninsula’s most celebrated
cooperages and winemakers.
Redbreast Pedro Ximénez Edition will
join the Lustau
Edition in the inaugural Redbreast Iberian
Series line up in yet another example
from Midleton's whiskey makers of how
Ireland and Iberia’s rich heritages, as
the purveyors of some the world’s finest
spirits and wines, can combine to create
whiskey.
The first limited edition release to
join the series, Redbreast Pedro Ximénez
Edition is a single pot still Irish
whiskey, triple distilled and initially
matured in ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry
casks before being re-casked into
delectable Pedro Ximénez hogsheads from
the southern tip of Spain for a minimum
of 12 months. Just half the size of a
standard sherry butt, the increased
surface area of the hogshead intensifies
the flavour contribution from the Pedro
Ximénez-soaked wood, imparting notes of
treacle, raisins and orange zest thanks
to the sweeter grape variety used in the
world renowned sherry.
Redbreast Lustau Edition – launched in
2016 to critical acclaim around the
globe – will remain the anchor
expression in the Redbreast Iberian
Series and will be joined by a new
Limited Edition release from time to
time.
Redbreast Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey
Pedro Ximénez Edition is bottled at 46%
ABV and without chill-filtration it has
a RRP of £72 and will be available from
specialist online whisky retailers
such as The Whisky Exchange
and
Master of
Malt
