Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition (70cl)
€100.00
The fifth release in the Iberian Series, is a limited-edition Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey finished in Moscatel wine casks from the hills of Málaga.
Initially matured in ex-American whiskey and Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, it is then re-casked in Málaga Moscatel-seasoned hogsheads from Bodegas Quitapenas, imparting a sun-soaked flavour with vibrant citrus, floral honey, and sweet fruit notes. Bottled at 46% ABV, this expression brings a Mediterranean twist to the Redbreast family.
Nose: Opens with fresh and sweet citrus aromas of tangerine and twisted orange peel accompanied by delicate herbal notes of camomile tea with dustings of nutmeg and shaved cedarwood. The wine-seasoned oak imparts vanilla with richly scented notes of floral honey and sugar glazed fruits while the pot still spices add subtle notes of black peppercorn and clove in the background.
Taste: Vibrant fruits of sweet pear, lime, and green apple along with, with textured layers of toffee, honeycomb, and vanilla. Woodland spices of cinnamon and nutmeg are met with subtle floral undertones and dried herbs all the while the oak remains consistent throughout.
Finish: Lasting finish which sees the pot still spices and wine seasoned oak lingering until the very end.
