Product Details
Redbreast 12 Years Old is crafted from a mash of malted and unmalted barley, triple-distilled in traditional copper pot stills. This Single Pot Still process, unique to Ireland, provides the spirit with an exceptional creaminess and rich spice. Matured for at least 12 years in a combination of Oloroso sherry casks and bourbon barrels, it achieves its signature dried fruit aroma and buttery smooth texture.

The history of Redbreast dates back to the early 20th century. Originally established by W. & A. Gilbey, it is one of the few brands that never ceased production of Single Pot Still whiskey, earning it the reputation as the 'guardian of the category.' The name 'Redbreast' was bestowed by Gilbey's chairman, an avid ornithologist, inspired by the warmth and spirit of the whiskey.
Single Pot Still is the essence of Irish whiskey. Unlike single malt, it uses a mix of malted and unmalted barley, giving the whiskey a unique 'spiciness' and 'creaminess.' Redbreast 12 is the ultimate expression of this style, having won multiple gold medals at international competitions like IWSC and SFWSC, and is often called the 'soul of Ireland' by enthusiasts.
The 2022 bottling continues this tradition of excellence. Whether enjoyed neat, with ice, or paired with fine desserts, this 'Robin' brings warmth and elegance. For collectors seeking depth and balance, Redbreast 12 is the perfect entry point into traditional Irish craftsmanship.
