A Tribute to American Oak and Irish Tradition – Redbreast Missouri Oak Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey
The Redbreast Missouri Oak Edition represents a remarkable fusion of Irish heritage and American craftsmanship. As the newest addition to Redbreast’s acclaimed American Oak Series, this release pays homage to the storied Ozark Forest of Missouri, where the oak for its finishing casks was carefully sourced. After aging in traditional sherry and ex-bourbon barrels, the whiskey was meticulously finished for ten months in virgin Missouri oak barrels, imparting a bold and distinctive American character to the iconic Redbreast profile.
Tasting Experience
Color: Deep golden amber with rich copper reflections.
Nose: Waves of toffee apple and vanilla unfold first, followed by ripe blackcurrants, black cherries, and warm notes of cinnamon and ginger. Hints of pecan pie lend a nutty sweetness that lingers in the background.
Palate: Silky and layered, revealing oak tannins balanced by creamy sweetness. Notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and black pepper mingle with berry fruits and vanilla cream for a harmonious, full-bodied flavor.
Finish: Exceptionally long, where nutty undertones and pot still spices slowly give way to gentle oak warmth.
