Overall this drinks fine, but really quite boring in comparison to the rest of the Redbreast lineup.

As I was diving through some new Redbreast releases recently, this thought jumped into my head. Much like American whiskey employs laser codes on their whiskey bottles, Redbreast has decided to make While the glass is still laser etched, Redbreast has dedicated a portion of their back label to reproducing You'll have to reach out to Redbreast via email on this one, but I do know that plant 3 is their location Let's use another example with this 2021 Redbreast PX Edition to really drive this home.

The first picture is from Redbreast's website. I have really, really loved the Redbreast line in general with the PX edition and the 12 year release 100% Malted and Unmalted Barley Proof: 101° Age: NAS Further identification: This new release from Redbreast notably different to the traditional creamy Irish whiskey mouthfeel one might come to expect from a Redbreast Rating: 3/5 I am much more impressed with this release compared to the Redbreast cask strength I tried

Are you a fan of sherry finishes? Are you a fan of Irish whiskey? I’ve been drinking Irish for a lot longer than I’ve been drinking anything else. I’m throwing it back to this one tonight. The last time I had this was St Patrick’s Day, where @amongstthefernsco crowned it her Irish Whiskey 2021 Bracket Champion. Let’s see how I feel about it tonight. Company on Label: Pernod Ricard Whiskey Type: Sherry Cask Finished Irish Whiskey Mash Bill Percentages: Undisclosed Proof: 92° Age: NAS (9-12 years) Further identification: This comes in a nice presentation box; purchased today, Friday the 13th of August 2021 Nose: Shortbread cookie! Bright vanilla. Some malty grains that instantly evolve into a rich chocolate & coffee bean. The start of the glass is kind of a cacophony of aromas. Sweet ashy smoke. Caramel and baking spices. Smells like some kind of confectionery creation my grandmother would make me. Pungent walnut parfait. A light leather and oak forms near the bottom of the glass. It floats along the incredible river of creamy vanilla that has been the highlight of this pour. Empty glass highlights some copper metallics I didn't originally find. Palate: Starts out viscous and oily but with very little sweetness right now which is surprising. The sherry finish on this definitely leans towards allowing the whiskey to work it's magic instead of taking over the profile. Creamy butter spread on a flaky square of cornbread. Syrupy sherry sweetness grows and grows the more you sip on this one. It feels like a solid step above in cask quality than what Bushmills Black Bush is finished in, which pains me to say, but it's true. I'd also wager it spent less time in the secondary cask. Slightly herbal near the bottom of the glass, this pour has always impressed me with its complexity over other Irish offerings. There's a texture and flavor that reminds me of my favorite parts of Nikka Coffey Malt. Last sip has buttery layers like mashed potatoes, rolling into a light oak and finally mellowing into the marshmallow sweetness of the evolved vanilla. Rating: 4/5
