The Redbreast 1998 Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is an extraordinary single cask release matured in an Oloroso Sherry Cask. Distilled in 1998 at the renowned Midleton Distillery, this whiskey was bottled exclusively for La Maison du Whisky in Paris in 2017. After aging for over 19 years in a single Oloroso Sherry cask, number 70946, only 648 bottles were produced, making it a true collector's item. Each bottle is uniquely numbered, ensuring its exclusivity. This expression is a testament to the craftsmanship of the Midleton Distillery and the distinctive style of Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, known for its rich, intricate flavors and creamy texture. The condition of these bottles is impeccable, further enhancing their desirability.
