Nose

sharp green apple, vanilla, soft red delicious

Palate

butter on attack, warmth mid palate with some spice

General description

wow. this is by far the most complex Irish whiskey I've had so far. instant favorite.

Nose

vanilla, prune

Palate

caramel

Finish

long and I get a hint of coffee and peach.

General description

Surprisingly complex, this pot still irish whiskey does not disappoint. Very sweet and fruity, with noticeable sherry and honey aromas, some mint, the perfect ammount of spice and grass in the very end. It is both gentle and complex.

Nose

Very gentle, subtle oak and sherry, with a light mint aroma completing the fragrance.

Palate

Very sweet and spicy, obvious honey with a lot of fruity notes, mostly sherry.

Finish

Spicy, with honey and sherry that gradually transform into a grassy taste. It feels like a continuation of the palate, with an earthy, grassy conclusion.

General description

smooth but unremarkable.

General description

Smooth and nice

General description

fruit and floral tastes. full mouth.

General description

This is a great Irish Whiskey with a hint of fruit and smooth finish. One of the better Irish whiskeys out there.

General description

Fruity shortbread cookies. And even at the 40% ABV there is a good amount of spice. It's good, but a bit overrated in my opinion.

General description

Sweet, fruity smell, can't place it. Very smooth, almost reminds me of fruit gushers, medium finish. Fantastic.

General description

Best Irish whiskey I’ve tried. I’m a bourbon lover, it don’t care for scotch. This Irish is very smooth, with none of the dirt/mildew notes I get from every scotch (and some Irish) whiskeys. Highly recommend!

General description

Quite fruity but toasty at same time on the nose.. Very oily and fruity on the palate. Very pleasant.

General description

Very good
sweet, Nice.

General description

Rich, smooth, buttery texture. Slight fatty cashew nutty notes. Bright almost minty spices come next and continue for a nice lingering finish. Overall very easy and tasty drinking!

General description

Such a nice whiskey, a joy to taste

Nose

Fruit (green apple), spice, hint of vanilla

Palate

hit with fruit right at the start, followed by a nice bite of spice, it all fades to a nice green apple, wonderful mouth feel

Finish

fruit fades out slowly, as a little bit of spice still tingles on the tongue

General description

quite complex spicy and fruity notes

Nose

complex spicy and fruity notes

Palate

mild creamy fruity and some sherry

Finish

quite long

An excellent intro to Irish whiskey. Flavors are mild, but so well ballanced, with sweetness, wood character and that slightest grainy touch

General description

🤘

butter, shortbread cookie, vanilla, little spice. classic Irish, one of the best.

General description

Nice easy sipping whiskey. Has definitely become one of my go to whiskeys.

General description

a pleasant sour note I can't put a name on, cookie dough, oloroso sherry, honey, slightly overdone toast, but not uncomfortable. the aftertaste is peppery, oaky and heavier on the toast

General description

buttery buscuits and honey. sweet baked good nose. creamy and smooth dram

General description

Wood is very evident, very subtle notes of caramel on the nose. Builds to a peppery finish.

Subtle caramel, wood

My day to day Whiskey, smooth, soft and warm, one if the finest Irish Whiskey out there, beautiful Pot still.

General description

One of the best Ireland has to offer. Smooth.

General description

A very nice single pot Irish whisky. The nose was almost better than the taste. Mild/smooth for a 12y whisky. Though I'm not a fan of Irish whisky I found it some whst pleasant.

General description

smooth, creamy, fruity with a nice spice at the end. not a huge fan of Irish whisky, but this definitely sold me.

General description

Ein fantastischer Whisky. Zurückhaltender Sherry in der Nase; jede Menge Frucht. Bei mir bilden sich sofort Assoziationen zu grünem Apfel, Limette, Grapefruit, junger Birne, aber auch süßem Obst wie Mango und Anklängen an Aprikose. Auch macht sich eine leichte Würze des Pot Still Charakters unmittelbar bemerkbar. Geschmacklich stellt sich eine schöne Frucht und Süße ein, die sehr bald von pfeffriger Würze abgelöst wird.
Bei diesem Redbreast gibt es einiges zu entdecken.

General description

nice whisky. A bit more body than Jameson.

General description

Super drank

General description

Für meinen Geschmack ein sehr gefälliger Whisky der mich ganz unaufgeregt überzeugt.

General description

pretty good stuff

General description

excellent flavor and really smooth. just cant justify the price

General description

honey and vanilla, crisp cookie and baking spices. very well balanced richness that makes this bottle an amazing Irish Whiskey

General description

This is a genre-defining, benchmark Irish whisky. Best you can find under $100 a bottle.

General description

A beautiful whiskey: silky smooth and honey-like with some slight floral notes.

General description

Very surprised by this Redbreast 12.
It's a pot still, triple distilled and bottled at 40% Abv.
The nose is a harmonic ensemble of sherry, fruit, cream, vanilla and roasted nuts with gentle alcohol.
The taste starts of soft, even watery, but alcohol and spice slowly built op to an explosion of peppery spice.
But that's balanced with sweet fruit and caramel.
The long firm spicy finish also is a complex mixture of all the things mentioned above.
Advisable for lovers of sweet complex and bold flavours.

Score 84.

General description

My favorite whiskey to date. It is soft on the nose and pallet. It leaves a slight warming feeling in your throat and stomach, but not in a harsh way.

General description

This is a great Whisky great value and just a pleasure to drink.

Nose

Warm spicy vanilla on the nose with some sweetness

Palate

Warm and inviting flavors of vanilla cinnamon and mild oak

Finish

Finish is warm not overly spicy and as well balanced as it dissipated off of the senses.

General description

If one was made to pick a whiskey to drink at breakfast this would be it such a delightful drink. Reminds me of a warm summer's day

General description

Pretty smooth, slight sweet, slight oak

General description

it's a warm hug in whiskey form. Sweet, fruity, and a buttered toast background that holds it all together. buy it.
